Neurodiplomacy

The proposed research uses eye-tracking technology to explore how people’s brains respond to cultural artifacts and spaces, developing a new idea called “neurodiplomacy.” Neurodiplomacy involves using insights from brain science, especially how we visually and emotionally respond to art and heritage, to strengthen mutual understanding and cooperation between different cultures and countries. By scientifically studying reactions to culturally significant objects and buildings, this project aims to show how experiencing cultural heritage can positively affect interactions and perceptions across cultures.
