The growing national interest in mindfulness and its role in education has been fueled in recent years with the important and compelling research exploring the connection between mindfulness practices and changes to the structure and function of the brain.
In collaboration with the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, Miami Law is contributing to this important work, helping to further our knowledge in this area of profound importance to legal education, the legal profession, and society. Future research is slated to include collaborative efforts among law schools.
