Summary
Peter and Janellen had shared ideas throughout their careers, molding each other’s perspectives on the fields of brain plasticity and development. Their shared interest and distinct approaches were accurately highlighted when they were introduced to their new retirement community in the early 2000s, through the Montgomery Place newsletter.
