Blue Mind
Get In It.
Blue Mind links neuroscience with nature in profoundly important new ways. The result is an exciting new field we call Neuroconservation. The benefits of this inquiry extend to public health, business, coastal planning, travel, real estate and most importantly rebuilding our emotional connection with water.
Blue Mind helps everyone working with and for our blue planet to do their jobs better by providing deeper insights into the science of "our brains on water". We expand the "ecosystem services" conversation to include the vast array of cognitive value offered by healthy waterways.
River Mind extends our understanding and appreciation of the cognitive benefits of healthy waterways to riverine ecosystems around the world.
Each year we hold a Blue Mind Summit, bringing together top neuroscientists, oceanographers, explorers, educators and artists to consider new questions about diverse aspects of the "human brain on water".
In 2011, the first Blue Mind Summit was held in SanFrancisco and in 2012 the second was held on the Outer Banks of North Carolina.
We are planning to hold Blue MInd 3 May 30th, 2013 on Block Island. Register for the live stream HERE.
