Description
There is a misconception that neuroscience is the study of the brain in a manner that is disconnected from the body. Neuroscience is actually the study of the central nervous system, which is the spinal cord and the brain included.
From this anatomical perspective our interaction with the physical world and how we make sense of it changes. In this new three-part series of Cognitive Academy classes, we will be learning about embodiment and the manner of which the brain and body work together to give a sense of perception as well as help solve problems around cognition, communication, and emotion.
FORMAT
Each class is 90 minutes and it starts with a scientific review and explanation, and then it is put forward to a discussion to examine how the science is applicable to industry.
WHO IS THIS CLASS FOR?
We are increasingly moving towards a more human-centric approach to cities, design, and technology. Making neuroscience a great a place to start if we are curious about understanding ourselves and creating better "things" for people.
SPEAKER
The class will be taught by cognitive neuroscientist Araceli Camargo from The Centric Lab where she focuses on attention and memory. There are two strains to her work one is understanding the relationship between people and the physical world around. The second is understanding how people form perception.

OUR ETHICS
The science is thoroughly researched and prepared for commercial application. The purpose is to gain an understanding of how people perceive and interact with the world around them. We aim to stay honest to the science whilst making it accessible and applicable to industry. By honest, we mean that we research a wide range of studies and data, which at times show different findings in order to bring you a diverse set of theories. It also means that we will not take a reductionist approach nor will we claim that neuroscience is an “answer” or predictive.
