College of Architecture + The Arts’ Dr. Winifred E. Newman, Associate Professor was invited to present a paper at the 2014 Neuro Logics Symposium in Toronto. This year’s Symposium was entitled “Architecture, Starting with the Brain.” Its emphasis was on the notion that the brain and its neuroscience are necessary aspects of architecture, that, according to the Symposium’s flyer, “[t]he lessons of the decade of the brain can help us rethink central aspects of architectural expertise and reformulate elements of its conceptual foundation.”

Dr. Newman, representing Florida International University, presented at the Symposium under the topic of Concept and Affect. Throughout the Symposium, Dr. Newman will sit alongside the following speakers:

Sarah Williams Goldhagen, Architecture Critic, The New Republic
Jonathan Hale, University of Nottingham
