UVA Health is focusing on a trend thats becoming more common in the field of business and higher education called the growth mindset. Its an approach to learning that teaches people that their circumstances dont define them, but it also encourages people to improve in whatever they do. It has long been promoted by psychologist and Stanford University Professor Carol Dweck. More recently, Dr. Milad Memari and his team of researchers at UVAs School of Medicine have published a paper on the many ways people can unleash the growth mindsets potential.
