# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Think Mind Science: Pop Culture Cognition
- **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 30 Jul, 2026 at 07:00 pm
- **Event Description**: A collaboration between TPR and the Mind Science Foundation, in this talk, Jazlyn Nketia, PhD, uses familiar pop culture examples—spanning film, sports, and public figures—to demonstrate how cognitive science can be used to anticipate behavior, power dynamics, and decision-making well before outcomes are apparent. She translates key concepts from cognitive science and psychology into practical frameworks that people already apply intuitively, making the science accessible and relatable rather than abstract.

Rather than analyzing pop culture for entertainment, the talk will reveal how everyday pattern recognition is rooted in well-established cognitive mechanisms. Audiences will leave with a new perspective for understanding individuals, institutions, and their own decision-making—without requiring any technical background.
