that we often don't even really realize that we're feeling. And the way I do this is by having people come into the lab and interact with each other in a bunch of different settings,

when people are engaging in these interactions. So we bring them into the lab, we hook them up to all this equipment

interact with each other in a cross-race interaction, and we brought them into the lab and we measured the physiology of both partners.

In fact, one in four prescriptions written every single day in the US is off-label. So I began to study my own blood in the lab to try to find a repurposed drug for me.

In one experiment, my colleagues Kiley Hamlin, Lara Aknin and I brought kids just under the age of two into the lab. Now, as you might imagine,

John Gottman: Fifty-two years ago, we put love under the microscope. Julie and I are the founders of the Gottman Institute and the Love Lab, and we've made the study of relationships our life's work.

Even Healthy Couples Fight — the Difference Is How | Julie and John Gottman | TED · TED

And our research tells us that fighting is good for relationships, not bad. Julie: In our lab, we saw that almost all couples fight. In fact, how they fight in the first three minutes

Even Healthy Couples Fight — the Difference Is How | Julie and John Gottman | TED · TED

Julie: Early on, John and his colleague Robert Levinson in their lab simply watched couples interacting. Sounds simple, but nobody had ever done that before.

Sounds simple, but nobody had ever done that before. John: Over time, 3,000 couples came to the lab. As they were being videotaped,

before returning home. They would return to the lab every year or two and repeat the same procedure,

rather than solved. Julie: In our lab, the couples who came back year after year kept bringing up exactly the same issue,

So, you know, I run a lab at the University of Pennsylvania and I'm very proud of our team,

that we, humans, have already done. You know, we've studied this drug in the lab for this disease, and it maybe showed promise,

But then for us humans to say this drug, for this disease really needs to be studied in the lab, this one needs to be in clinical trials,

And so that's what we did. Now waiting for lab results can sometimes be a nerve-racking experience. Honestly, it's kind of like waiting for the results of a pregnancy test.

It means that our CRISPRs cut a single strand of DNA into two, in the exact right spot, just like natural CRISPRs in the lab. And so that's when we knew ...

Elissa's question to me, back when she first came to my lab, indeed had been a life-and-death question. Now, luckily, hidden in that data there was hope.
