¿Cuánto tarda el cerebro en tomar una decisión? Cada pensamiento, por simple que parezca, es el resultado de una red neuronal compleja que procesa información en milisegundos. Ariel nos invita a descubrir qué sucede en el cerebro antes de que actuemos y cómo funciona realmente la toma de decisiones.

Spesso pensiamo al colore come a qualcosa di stabile, oggettivo, universale. Eppure, dietro ogni sfumatura si nasconde un dialogo continuo tra il mondo e chi lo osserva. Il colore non è solo una proprietà della luce o dei materiali, ma una forma di linguaggio condiviso che ci permette di dare signi

Kanishk talks about how dreams are a mystery yet they are a vital part of our wellbeing and furthering ideas. Kanishk Yankarla is a current first year undergraduate Honors Neuroscience student at the University of Texas at Austin. He graduated as the Salutatorian of the Odessa High School class of 2

When we hear the word intelligence or cognition, we instinctively picture human brains or perhaps advanced machines trained to imitate us humans. But what if intelligence is far older, far more distributed, and far more fundamental to life itself? I would explore the idea of how intelligence or cog

Adolescents can make better decisions and avoid impulsive actions by understanding and strengthening response inhibition through habits like proper sleep, nutrition, and focus training. Aditi Panchagnula is a fifteen-year-old high school sophomore with a keen interest in genetic medicine, neuroscien

Music does more than entertain—it activates memory, shapes emotion, and even influences focus and learning. This talk explores how the brain responds to rhythm and melody, revealing why certain songs can calm us, motivate us, or bring back powerful memories, and what this means for how we live and l

In diesem Talk zeigt Werner Gruber wie unser Denken tatsächlich funktioniert: nicht logisch-linear, sondern über Synchronisation, Muster und Selbstorganisation. Anhand von Äpfeln, Katzen, Glühwürmchen und Neuronen macht er sichtbar, wie Bedeutung entsteht und warum Wahrnehmung immer Konstruktion ist
