About this listen
Researcher Danny Muñoz Lopez studies the connection between media use and adolescent mental health and wellbeing. While the focus often centers on mental harms from technologies like social media, Lopez notes that social media can also provide connection for young people, especially for those from historically marginalized groups. She also emphasizes the need to include young people in discussions around children and technology.
