brain%20writing-thumb.jpgIf you are not busy attending the 2nd annual Neurotech Industry Conference on May 17-18, 2007 in San Francisco, you might consider heading over to Italy in May for the first NeuroLeadership Summit which will bring together top neuroscientists with leadership development experts and senior business executives, to collaborate on addressing some of today’s most important organizational challenges. Issues like how to drive positive change, speed up learning, manage through uncertainty, deal with information overload, and make better decisions. This conference and the birth of this new field is further evidence that we are witnessing the emergence of a neurosociety, where social, economic and political change are increasingly being driven by advances in neurotechnology.

It would be interesting to see how much these two conferences will be based on hard neurobiological facts, instead of empiric psychological practices.

PS. I might attend the Italian meeting...
