New to HUBweek this year, the Ideas Dome Presented by Blue Cross Blue Shield of MA will feature a series of more than four dozen sessions taking place across five days, exploring how we can build a more inclusive and equitable future.


From official guidelines for little ones, to best practices for older kids and teenagers, we'll dive into common parent concerns about TV watching and children. How does TV affect the brain, how much is too much, and when and how do we set limits? If storytelling is good for emotional development, does it really matter whether it comes in the form of a book or a screen? And what is the impact of different kinds of programming, including violence on TV, and our everyday news cycles?

Steven Schlozman, MD
Co-director, The Clay Center for Young Healthy Minds | Assistant Professor of Psychiatry, Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical School
