II. The first, inaugural 5‑day Goldberg Brain-Mind Symposium (February 2020):

Dr. Gold­berg has been a fre­quent vis­i­tor to Bali for 30 years and is cur­rent­ly engaged in cross-cul­tur­al neu­ro­science research with two major Indone­sian uni­ver­si­ties. He per­son­al­ly designed this unique and com­pre­hen­sive event to dis­cuss cut­ting edge cog­ni­tive neu­ro­science and state-of-the-art clin­i­cal insights with a small group of par­tic­i­pants in one of the most icon­ic des­ti­na­tions in the world: Bali, Indonesia.
