Abstract:

Neuroscience is a multidisciplinary branch of biology that focuses on the mechanics of cognitive functions.  It has gained popularity due to its many applications such as business communication,  neuro marketing, spiking neural (SN) P systems in chip design, etc.  Neuroscience based communication is a topic that spans multiple disciplines: neuroscience, linguistics, speech-language pathology, psychology, cognitive science, audiology, computer science, engineering, education, and others.

In this seminar, we will  

  • examine cutting edge research in neuroscience and its fascinating applications
  • focus on learning principles relevant to our daily communication success
  • discuss how we may leverage neuroscience based communication to significantly enhance our capabilities in career success and improve business results

With renewed understanding of effective communication,  we may find that we can draw on the diverse strengths and expertise of our community to build a much bright future!

As a translator of “Making a Good Brain Great” (from English to Chinese, published in 2007, by PHEI) and a graduate student in AI research right after college to China’s first Head of National AI Research Group, the speaker studied cognitive science, AI and applications for years – before AI became hot in recent years.  Let’s enjoy learning together on how neuroscience based communication can help us excel.
