The Grieving Brain: The Surprising Science of How We Learn from Love and Loss
A renowned grief expert and neuroscientist shares groundbreaking discoveries about what happens in our brain when we grieve, providing a new paradigm for understanding love, loss, and learning.
For as long as humans have existed, we have struggled when a loved one dies. Poets and playwrights have written about the dark cloak of grief, the deep yearning, how devastating heartache feels. But until now, we have had little scientific perspective on this universal experience.
In The Grieving Brain, neuroscientist and psychologist Mary-Frances O’Connor, PhD, gives us a fascinating new window into one of the hallmark experiences of being human. O’Connor has devoted decades to researching the effects of grief on the brain, and in this book, she makes cutting-edge neuroscience accessible through her contagious enthusiasm, and guides us through how we encode love and grief. With love, our neurons help us form attachments to others; but, with loss, our brain must come to terms with where our loved ones went, or how to imagine a future that encompasses their absence.
Based on O’Connor’s own trailblazing neuroimaging work, research in the field, and her real-life stories, The Grieving Brain does what the best popular science books do, combining storytelling, accessible science, and practical knowledge that will help us better understand what happens when we grieve and how to navigate loss with more ease and grace.
SUPER BRAIN SUMMIT
The Super Brain Summit is an annual conference with live and asynchronous sessions that showcases internationally known experts to talk about the many, diverse wonders of the brain.
The 2023 event will focus on The Grieving Brain, the surprising science of how we learn from love and loss. The featured speaker will be Dr. Mary-Frances O’Connor.
There will be four sessions available:
To understand grief, understand bonding and attachment
Neurobiology of grief and grieving
Prolonged Grief Disorder (PGD) (Grieving as form of learning)
Toolkit of coping strategies and psychotherapeutic intervention
You will have three options to register for Super Brain. You may register for in person, live streaming or recorded sessions. If you choose the in person or live streaming event, you will not automatically receive the recorded session. You must register specifically for recorded sessions.
Continuing Education Units (CEUs) for LPC, LCPC, LSW, LMFT, LCP, RN, LPN, APN, PT, and PTA will be awarded for full participation in the program. Each session will earn .15 CEUs (1.5 contact hours).
For more information regarding registration contact Gwen Howarter in Continuing Education and Professional Development at ghowarter@bradley.edu or (309) 677-3900.
For more information regarding programming, contact Dr. Lori Russell-Chapin, Professor and Co-Director for the Center for Collaborative Brain Research lar@bradley.edu or (309) 677-3186.
