On November 11-12, the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF), working with the Monitor Institute, will welcome a small group of researchers, academics, physicians and industry leaders in the fields of neurotechnology, neurodevelopment and behavior change for a “Forum on the Future Impact of Neuroscience and Behavior Change.” This convening, at RWJF’s Princeton headquarters, is designed to shine a light on key areas of innovation and what they could mean for the future of health and health care, highlight new opportunities for key players and forge a greater sense of connectivity among leading thinkers in these three fields.
Over the course of two days, participants will engage in a series of highly iterative, forward-looking discussions on neurotechnology, neurodevelopment and behavioral change. This will culminate in a wrap-up session that will integrate the thinking across all three areas and highlight connections and implications for the future of health and health care.
RWJF and the Monitor Institute are excited to host this event and bring this distinguished group together. Please visit this page again in the weeks following the event for insights in to what was learned and how you can keep this conversation alive.
The Pioneer Portfolio has launched Pioneering Ideas, a blog for RWJF staff, grantees and other innovators to share breakthrough ideas for health and health care. Here are several recent entries:
