Yale School of Medicine announced the launch of the Yale Center for Health & Learning Games. This center is dedicated to the research and development of games aimed at teaching health behaviors to youth. Yale's play2PREVENT Lab, a V-CREATE collaborator, will be a part of the new center. Dr. Lynn Fiellin is the director of play2PREVENT and Dr. Kimberly Hieftje serves as the deputy director. V-CREATE and the ViTAL Center at Vanderbilt have teamed with Dr. Fiellin's team to adapt the game PlayForward: Elm City Stories to focus on cancer and heart disease risk reduction.
