Summary

What happens in the brain when we act with compassion—and how can nurturing kindness improve individual and societal well-being? The Neuroscience of Kindness conference will bring together leading researchers, clinicians, and public health experts to explore the biological, psychological, and social foundations of prosocial behavior. 

This one-day event will examine how kindness develops across the lifespan, the evolutionary roots of cooperation, and the measurable effects of compassion and altruism on physical and mental health. Participants will also discuss practical strategies for cultivating kindness in communities, workplaces, and institutions, and how doing so may represent an urgent public health priority. 

Your learning journey extends well beyond this year’s event. As a registrant, you gain free access to our on-demand library of event content following the live symposium for an entire year. You can revisit sessions and dive deeper into topics of interest – exploring a wealth of research, insights, and thought-provoking discussions at your convenience.

Join scientists, clinicians, educators, and policymakers this March for a day of discovery and dialogue about how understanding the neuroscience of kindness can shape a healthier, more connected world.
