An intimate evening of live jazz and neuroscientific discovery.
Join us as we explore how the unconscious mind helps to process grief.
How does the brain navigate the unthinkable? Through the lens of Dr. Noam Schneck’s groundbreaking MRI research at Columbia University, we explore the "hidden" map of grief. Discover how our unconscious minds creatively "rewrite" the story of loss—distilling the enormity of grief into something that the conscious mind can “contain”.
Acclaimed pianist and vocalist Kelly Green performs original compositions from her deeply personal album dedicated to her mother, illustrating the profound connection between creative inspiration and the healing brain.
