Details

This pandemic has exposed many cracks in our systems and beliefs. In too many cases, what we had thought was genuine empathy has been shown to actually shown to be performative at best. So our question is "Can narratives play a role in increasing empathy?" In order to answer this question we need to start by understanding what happens at a neurobiological level when people are exposed to narratives.

The project may include, but is not limited to:

  • Exploring the existing literature on: (neurobiology and narratives), (neurobiology and empathy)
  • Contribute to the development of a scholarly paper about this topic
