On 24th and 25th of April, the 3rd International Baltic Neurocine Conference took place at Tallinn University.
One of the keynote speakers was Iiro Jääskeläinen, Professor of Neuroscience and Biomedical Engineering at Aalto University. In his presentation, he talked about how films have changed research in social science, going over recent results that indicate a still largely uncovered potential of free film viewing to study social cognition and emotions in participants during neuroimaging experiments.
In this interview, Iiro Jääskeläinen discusses what brought him to speak about the brain at the conference and what can filmmakers gain from neuroscientific research.
