Although we live in the society of acceleration, in which  time is money and productivity, there is are many evidences showing the importance of slowing the pace down, embedded in movements such as Slow Medicine, Slow Food, and in books which are reminding us the importance of resting.

In this seminar, we will discover four different conceptions of time: the linear one, represented by Chronos, which is related to productivity (quantity of time), and the istant time, Kairos, that very moment in which we add quality and creativity, since we may take a very important decision, change strategies and reset our mind.

Health Neuroscience: the role of Ethics in the definition of a New Field

Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation – Lisbon - Portugal

Health neuroscience is a new field that is at the interface of health and neuroscience. A chief goal of health neuroscience is not only to characterize bidirectional and dynamic brain-behaviour and brain-physiology relationships that are determinants, markers, and consequences of physical-health states across the life span. The motivation behind the ICONE is that a better understanding of ethics concerns will provide insights into how the brain links multilevel genetic, biological, psychological, behavioural, social, and environmental factors with physical health - especially vulnerability to and resilience against clinical illnesses. ICONE 5 has the pleasure to host the ENA-NET NEURON Midterm Session, which will bring a special dimension to the event.
