Neuro Humanities

Abstract

Barbara Stafford, a distiguished visiting professor at Georgia Tech, will discuss this fascinating field and some of her recent work that explores the edge of neuroscience and the humanities. Recent discoveries in both these fields allow neuroscience to help explain what it is to persuade or move people with activities usually reserved for the humanities. We will also discuss the upcoming Neuro Salon and the Neuro Humanities Entanglement Conference at Georgia Tech this April.
