About the Society for the Neuroscience of Creativity
An inclusive community of scholars and educators seeking to understand and actively leverage the neural mechanisms that support creative thinking, teaching, and learning
Our Mission & Vision
The creative ability of the human brain represents the highest cognitive reach of 3.8 billion years of evolution.
Human creativity has widely recognized value for learning and practice in the arts and sciences, and as a driver of the modern innovation economy.
Because creativity has such broad and diverse impacts, the neuroscience of creativity is being pursued by a diverse set of researchers.
SfNC aims to establish an inclusive community of scholars and educators seeking to understand and actively leverage the neural mechanisms that support creative thinking, teaching, and learning.
SfNC seeks to foster advances in all areas of creativity research and to provide a forum for communicating this research so that it has maximal impact.
