Dialogues Between Neuroscience and Society: Susan Magsamen on Science, Art, and Aesthetic Experiences
Nov 13, 2024
This Dialogues Between Neuroscience and Society lecture was recorded Oct. 5, 2024, at Neuroscience 2024 in Chicago.
Susan Magsamen’s work lies at the interdisciplinary intersection of science, art, and aesthetic experiences. Her presentation will explore the science of neuroaesthetics, the study of how the arts and aesthetic experiences measurably change the brain and body, and how to translate this knowledge into practices that advance health, well-being, learning, flourishing, and community development. The science of the arts is no longer a far-fetched idea but a tangible reality with groundbreaking research and practical applications emerging at an unprecedented pace.
