INQUIRY | What do we know?

How does the brain shape the way we see, create, and make sense of the world?
Creative Brain Week - Day 1 traces the many journeys of creativity, from the laboratory to the community choir, from clinical care to lived experience. Together, we explore how science and art illuminate perception, memory, and meaning, and how knowledge forms both within and beyond academic walls.
As we listen and connect, we begin to see what knowledge can look like when discovery is shared.

What's on the day?
Speakers include neuroscientists, art curators and practitioners, public health researchers, and people with lived experience with dementia.
A connection through music participatory experience and a panel discussion are included.
