Esther Sternberg M.D. is the Founding Director of the University of Arizona Institute on Place, Wellbeing & Performance, and holds joint appointments at UA as Professor of Medicine and Psychology. In her TEDx Talk, "Healing Spaces - the science of place and well-being", she discusses the power of our immediate environment and its effects on healing and overall happiness.
