BrainMind + Your Brain on Art: How Art Transforms Us
Inspired by the groundbreaking insights of our cohosts, Susan Magsamen and Ivy Ross, in their best selling book "Your Brain on Art: How the Arts Transform Us", this day was dedicated to exploring how the arts and aesthetic experiences measurably change the body, brain, and behavior. Participants were able to awaken their senses through the perfect blend of theory and practice, immersing themselves in live artistic experiences where they not only witnessed but could actively participate in creative expression.
BrainMind Special Forum: Neuromodulation + BCI + AI
This past June, BrainMind invited world-renowned experts to explore the forefront of cognitive innovation. These two days delved into the rapidly evolving landscapes of neuromodulation, brain-computer interfaces (BCIs), and the interaction of artificial and biological intelligence. These cutting-edge technologies are transforming lives — enabling people to walk again, talk again, see again, and hear again. Not only are these scientific breakthroughs restoring function, they are offering transformative potential for mental health and human performance.
