Our Brains in Color

What if you could read the minds of your friends, family or coworkers? Imagine peering into your own brain in real time to learn how it truly works. Today we can!

In this tour, you will delight in colorful images of the brain, its many facets and functions, and explore the promise of neuroscience to help us understand ourselves and others.

We all have questions: Does psychotherapy help? Can we objectively assess skills? Where are emotions? Do your genes, upbringing or adult endeavors shape you more? What's your executive style? How can we best break or build habits?

Today, we can observe the brain's magic unfolding live and we are learning more everyday. Time-tested EEG technology uses harmless sensors to rapidly and accurately measure people's brainwaves as they try various tasks. Afterward, intense computer analysis reveals what engages us most and which brain regions and networks we tap from years of habits and preferences.

Award-winning UCLA professor and author Dario Nardi brings to life insights from his lab and face-to-face work with hundreds of people around the world, including fans of Carl Jung and the Myers-Briggs personality type patterns.
