How will future technologies influence our ability to think and remember? What opportunities do they offer to optimize our memory and how vulnerable does this make our brain? In his inspiring lecture, Dr. Boris Nikolai Konrad, PhD brain researcher, neuroscience expert and speaker and world champion in memory sports, offers a groundbreaking insight into the latest developments in brain research and the evolution of our brain to provide an outlook on the future - approaches that will soon shape our everyday lives, both in our private and professional lives.
How the interaction between the brain and new technologies works.
What opportunities and risks these developments entail.
How companies can strategically prepare for the coming changes.
As a neuroscientist at the renowned Donders Institute in Nijmegen, Dr. Boris Nikolai Konrad researches how modern technologies - from smart glasses to wearables - influence our brains. He is familiar with the current state of global research and talks about the “future brain” when he shows which study results will soon shape our everyday lives and our society. The experienced science slammer and keynote speaker brings this fascinating insider knowledge to the stage in his keynote speech with plenty of humor and entertaining anecdotes.
In his easy-to-understand keynote speech, which is characterized by humour and science at the same time despite the sometimes complicated content, Dr. Konrad talks about techniques such as “targeted brain stimulation” and “learning in sleep” - methods that are no longer science fiction but could soon become reality in order to increase our thinking performance and ability to concentrate in everyday life.
