Individuals need creativity and problem solving skills to thrive in today’s economy and the workforce of the future. Empathic and aesthetic perception abilities involve part of the neural network underlying the capacity to understand and share the emotional states of other people.

They are engaged in research around perception of aesthetic as a key issue to understanding who we are and where we are going and the role of emotion and emotional intelligence in well-being and use of arts to promote emotions and creativity skills.
