Games for Health Conference
It looks like I’ll be an invited speaker at the [Games for Health conference], held next month in Baltimore, MD. I’ll hold off until after the conference to talk more fully about the presentation. As of right now it’ll be thematically very similar to my Gamasutra article from last week, [Gaming Addiction: Clearing the Air, Moving Forward], though will feature a handful of more concrete and easy takeaways. Among them will be the three most basic areas that can cause addiction and addiction-like symptoms; as well as where game devs and researchers most need to focus efforts in order to move our understanding forward in the short and long term.
I’m 100% excited.

Very exciting, and congratulations! I’ll be looking forward to hearing how it goes and what gets discussed.
Definitely. I’ll hit them with the basics and see where things go from there. What I might be looking forward to most is the audience feedback.
