We’re a professional society of scientists and practitioners who study the neuroscience of creativity.
SfNC’s mission is to foster research on the neural and cognitive bases of creativity and related constructs, and to provide a forum for communicating this research so that it has maximal impacts for education, health, innovation, and artistic performance.
Learn more about the Society and its mission here, and learn about our ongoing campaign to support creativity research.
