Description:
We have cracked the code of romantic love. We can precisely target interventions and shape the core defining moments of a love relationship.

New findings in neuroscience promise couple interventions that may be the most potent and far-reaching form of therapeutic intervention ever devised.
Educational Objectives:
- List two breakthroughs in our understanding of the brain in love.
