Cultural Neuroscience

[Stephen Jones]

Hello all,

Cultural neuroscience looks at how culture can shape cognition, how brains work in different settings, and the culture-dependent connections between cognition and brain function. Cultural neuroscience has emerged at the intersection of the incredible rise of neuroimaging research and decades of work in cultural psychology. cultural neuroscience shares common research goals with social neuroscientists examining how neurobiological mechanisms, facilitate cultural transmission, and neuroanthropologists examining how embedded culture, as captured by cross-species comparison and ethnography, is related to brain function.

Thanks a lot!
