Speaker Series

Our Guest Speaker Series invites scholars from all ages, educational backgrounds, locations, and identities to share their area of expertise in brain-related fields in bullet-sized presentations and talks.

How do we perceive and engage with music, sound, and images? How do we retrieve information from music? Dr. Blair Kaneshiro explores these questions at the Stanford Center for Computer Research in Music and Acoustics (CCMRA), as an adjunct professor.
Professor Peggy Mason presents a talk about her research on the biological basis of empathy and pro-social behavior. Some of her research questions include: Do rats help another in distress? Who do they help? What motivates rats to help another in distress? What are the brain circuits that support affective communication?
Can dolphins recognize themselves in the mirror?? Learn about intelligence and cognition in marine animals with Dr. Lori Marino!! Lori Marino is the founder and executive director of the Whale Sanctuary Project, and formerly a senior lecturer at Emory University for 20 years. She is internationally known for her work on the evolution of the brain and intelligence in dolphins and whales.
Why can individuals never seem to find common ground? Why is today’s society so polarized, particularly in politics? Watch the founders of Let’s Talk Unite and NeuroPsych(ED) discuss the neuropsychological basis of these issues.
