Could the microbial community in our nose influence our food choices? Men or women, young or old, we are all colonized by one to two kilos of micro-organisms. These bacteria, viruses and fungi, present inside and outside our bodies, are grouped together under the term "bacteria".

In order to imagine and lead into a different future, our intelligence must be mobilized, desire must be in the game, fear must not have the power, anger must be used for progress and not for violence, sadness and distress must be used to take care of the sick and the disabled.

The right to cognitive freedom, the right to mental privacy, the right to mental integrity and the right to psychological continuity are the four new laws proposed by researchers to protect themselves from a future that will be dominated by neuroscience. New rights of

The experiment was conducted on the brains of frogs. Even tadpoles, to be precise. It involved exposing embryos of the species Xenopus laevis to a mixture of chemicals comparable to that found in the amniotic fluid of most pregnant women. Of these, the most

In honor of Brain Week, which is being held throughout France, I propose that you take the time to ask yourself the question of the interest of neuroscience for management. Throughout life, we are aware that we have a heart, lungs... which we know

The neurosciences' view of an initiatory journey: What happens to the brain of the cyclist who sets off on a solo circumnavigation of the world? She had just turned twenty-seven, found the time long, the environment too narrow. Béatrice MAINE then imagined cycling around the world.

Bad memories often taint the mind. For some, victims of post-traumatic stress, they are so violent that they resist treatment and prevent a normal life. A neuroscientist, working on the mechanisms of learning, accidentally discovered that some bad memories can be erased forever. A drug

Renewing ourselves, seeking new resources and inventing a new harmony for human nature. To acquire this new agility, the assets and limitations of the brain require hard work. To imagine a different future by confronting ourselves with the retrospective powers of memory. Open our perceptions to discover

Over the past few decades, projects have transformed the way people work together. In essence, they have confronted the power relationships associated with silos, forcing the organization to invent inter-directorate committees. They have challenged relational skills and forced technicians to discover negotiation. This learning process has

The DAVOS Forum has established a hierarchy of qualities required for leadership in 2020. It proposes a cognitive and emotional coherence that prefigures the profiles of the transformational leaders we need to build a different future. In the past, mastering economic performance and controlling

A new page is being written. We're heading into a changing future. The situations we have to solve are always more complex. Our skills are challenged. Activating new talents in this context requires cognitive and emotional effort. But nature is well done, or rather, science comes

Gaining decision-making agility is a prerequisite for developing disruptive strategies. The overconfidence that we credit our mental processes with is now demonstrated (hailed by two Nobel prizes, one in economics, one in psychology). In a context of mutation, our ignorance of our cognitive, emotional and mimetic functioning

What is the memory of the future? It is the memory that projects us into the future. This prospective memory has the particularity of needing information acquired in the past or the present - which amounts to the same thing - so that we can imagine hypotheses about probable futures. But..,

Most managers forget that "you can't not have emotions"! And that these have virtues. The first of these is to motivate action. Which, for a manager, falls right in line with his or her objectives. Because, unless I am mistaken, his responsibility is

L’erreur de Broca par Hugues Duffau, Michel Lafon édition, 2016 Deux en un ! Neurosciences et sociologie : Une pédagogie remarquable sur la connectivité cérébrale et le récit de l’aventure d’un pionnier.   L’aventure d’un explorateur du cerveau. Il nous propose de mieux comprendre la connectique qui est au centre de

Chaque jour, nous échangeons des milliers de mots. En famille, au bureau, avec les amis. Comment le cerveau est-il capable de reconstituer le sens des mots. Quels mécanismes se mettent en œuvre pour que nous puissions comprendre ce flux sans fin ? Un groupe de scientifiques a entrepris de cartographier la

Voilà une question que les scientifiques et les philosophes triturent depuis très longtemps : peut-on former une pensée sans recourir au langage ? Pour le savoir, le célèbre neuroscientifique Stanislas Dehaenne et Marie Amalric, jeune chercheuse de son unité mixte CEA/Inserm/Paris Sud et Collège de France, ont mis au point une expérience

Comme les Marines de l’armée américaine, vous pourrez bientôt vous doter d’une arme secrète de très haute technologie. Un dispositif présenté sous forme d’un casque ultra léger qui va augmenter vos capacités physiques et cérébrales dans des proportions que vous n’auriez jamais osé rêver. C’est de neurostimulation dont il s’agit,

Bad memories often taint the mind. For some, victims of post-traumatic stress, they are so violent that they resist treatment and prevent a normal life. A neuroscientist, working on the mechanisms of learning, accidentally discovered that some bad memories can be erased forever. A drug

Il est dit du cerveau qu’il est l’objet le plus complexe de l’univers. Rien n’est moins sûr, mais il reste un véritable mystère pour les chercheurs. Il fut le sujet de la dernière conférence du cycle Les BOULLIMICS. Entre mythes et découvertes, Hervé Chneiweiss, neurologue et neurobiologiste, nous donne les
