Your Brain on Art

Last week I had the most interesting conversation with Neuroscientist Dr. Maryam Faiz and her assistant Emerson Daniele. We are collaborating on a painting for the upcoming fundraiser hosted by the Branch Out Foundation in order to support neurological research that I mentioned last week. I'm thrilled to be invited to take part in such important work. Here's a little more information:

The Branch Out Neurological Foundation is a not-for-profit organization based in Calgary, Canada. We accelerate tech solutions and non-pharmaceutical approaches to neurological disorders, including Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, Autism, Depression, Multiple Sclerosis, Concussion, Epilepsy etc. Through our grant program, we provide funding for researchers across Canada.

Our vision? A world free from neurological disorders.

We fund research that fits into the rigorous NeuroCAM (Neuroscience + Complementary & Alternative Modalities) criteria.  All research proposals are reviewed by our Scientific Review Panel to ensure it meets the highest quality of research methods and scientific measures. Since 2010, we’ve raised nearly $3 Million for alternative brain research, funded over one hundred and forteen (114) research projects and have expanded our University Grant Program across Canada.
