He focuses on interdisciplinary approaches
他通過跨學科的研究方法
to understanding the adolescent brain development
研究青春期的大腦發育情況
and this development period
認為這一發展階段
as a unique opportunity for early intervention
為我們的早期干預活動提供了特別的契機
He also has his eye toward policy implications of this work

So thank you so much for being with us today
謝謝大家能來聽我的報告
Thank you very much
謝謝大家
It's really a pleasure to be here
很高興能來這里
and to have an opportunity to stretch our thinking a bit
很高興能有機會就我們面對的問題
about some of the questions that have come up
擴展我們的思維
And it's also great to follow
前面的很多報告
so many really strong presentations
給我做了一個很好的鋪墊
that have helped to set the stage for the things that I want to say
幫助我更好的闡述我即將講到的內容
This is the essence of the point that I want to make
我想講到問題可以歸納為一點
that although there may be many intervals
也就是在青少年的發展過程中
in the development trajectory
這些因素會變得越來越重要
within which these factors become important
但盡管這個過程存在很多時間段
I'm gonna argue that adolescence
但我要說的是
particularly early adolescence which overlaps
盡管正如蘇珊梅德琳提到的那樣
some of the childhood studies
青春期研究和兒童研究
as Susan Medley mentioned before
存在重疊的情況
creates a perfect storm of negative synergy
但青春期確實引發了嚴重的負增效結果
You've already heard about the negative spirals
大家都聽過負螺旋的概念
related to sleep/stress/metabolic interactions
這個負螺旋與睡眠 壓力
metabolic balance
以及代謝平衡有關
and I'm gonna argue that
我想說的是
when we think about what's happening
當我們研究
in terms of brain, behavior, social context interactions
青春期到來時
at the onset of puberty
大腦 行為和社會關系互動的變化
and into adolescence
研究青春期時期
that the combination of these two are creating
這兩方面因素如何共同發揮作用
a huge high impact storm of effects
不僅對肥胖癥和生理健康
that influence not just obesity and physical health
造成了巨大的影響
but a wide range of health issues
而且影響到了和健康有關的方方面面
That's really what I want to talk about today
這就是我今天的報告內容
A broad framework of thinking about health
也就是從更廣泛的層面去思考健康
I'm gonna step back for few minutes
我想先花幾分鐘時間講一個基本問題
and talk about the health paradox of adolescents
也就是青春期的健康悖論
I call it paradox
我之所以稱之為悖論
because from one perspective
因為從一方面來看
adolescence is the healthiest period of lifespan
青春期是人一生當中最健康的時間段
