The Science of Coping with Crises and Everyday Stressors

Join fellow Tufts alumni and friends, Sunday October 15th from 11:30a-2:30p for an illuminating presentation by Tufts professors Lisa M. Shin and Samuel R. Sommers, followed by an elegant private lunch at the Encore Bistro and Bar in the Cape Museum of Art Complex in Dennis.

We live in a time of crisis and multiple sources of daily stress.  In response to these circumstances, Professors Lisa Shin and Sam Sommers of the Tufts Department of Psychology created a new course for students titled The Science of Coping.  Join us for a sampling of that course, in which two research scientists—one a clinical neuroscientist, one a social psychologist—introduce you to research theories and findings you can apply to your own life in concrete ways.  Topics include strategies for coping with stress and regulating emotion; the importance of nutrition, sleep, and exercise; the effects of social connection; navigating misinformation and conspiracy theories.
