Seriously Curious #5: neurology & movement
Talks inspired by KU Leuven at Concertgebouw Brugge
Neuroscientist and choreographer in conversation
Everyone claims that exercise is good for the brain, but what does that actually mean? Dance in Brugge Maker Femke Gyselinck experiences first-hand what exercise does to the body and the mind. Neuroscientist Jolien Gooijers then gives us an academic explanation of the obvious. Under the smooth guidance of Koen Fillet, these two complement each other's – and our own – knowledge.
