The Brian Mulroney Institute of Government and Frank McKenna Centre for Leadership Present
The Gaslit Brain
Dr. Jennifer Fraser
Tuesday, November 4, 2025
7:00 pm–9:00 pm
Mulroney Hall 2030
The Mulroney Institute and McKenna Centre welcome Canadian author and educator Dr. Jennifer Fraser who will share insights into her forthcoming book The Gaslit Brain: Protect Your Brain From the Lies of Bullying, Gaslighting, and Institutional Complicity. In a world of increasingly shaped by disinformation, political division, and toxic leadership, The Gaslit Brain is the first book linking gaslighting directly to measurable neurological damage – and to offer science-backed strategies to counter it. Drawing on over 10 years of studying the neuroscience of abuse cultures, Dr. Fraser presents the evidence that gaslighting and psychological manipulation don't just harm emotionally – they physically alter the brain, eroding trust, critical thinking, and resilience.
All are welcome.
