Neuroesthetics (or neuroaesthetics) is a recent sub-discipline of applied aesthetics. Empirical aesthetics takes a scientific approach to the study of aesthetic experience of art , music , or any object that can give rise to aesthetic judgments. [ 2 ]
[3] [13] Officially founded in 2016, the IAM Lab is dedicated to exploring the scientific relationship between aesthetics and the brain, or what Magsamen has called “the study of how our brain and biology change [from exposure to] the arts.” [13] Known as neuroaesthetics, this emerging field was first defined by neurobiologist Semir Zeki in ...
Neuroarthistory is an approach that concerns the neurological study of artists, both living and dead. [ 1 ] In 2004 Onians taught the Postgraduate module "Art and the Brain" named after the 1999 paper by Professor Semir Zeki [ 2 ] which was the first postgraduate course in an art history department that applied neuroscientific principles.

Aesthetics is a discipline that, within the psychological field, has been studied over the decades by different approaches, including the gestalt and cognitivist ones. In 2005, Chatterjee, [5] stressed the need to use a research approach able to integrate neuroaesthetics with an analytical description of the features of visual stimuli in order to obtain quantifiable parameters.
The psychology of art is the scientific study of cognitive and emotional processes precipitated by the sensory perception of aesthetic artefacts, such as viewing a painting or touching a sculpture. It is an emerging multidisciplinary field of inquiry, closely related to the psychology of aesthetics, including neuroaesthetics. [1] [2]
Experimental aesthetics is a field of psychology founded by Gustav Theodor Fechner in the 19th century. According to Fechner, aesthetics is an experiential perception which is empirically comprehensible in light of the characteristics of the subject undergoing the experience and those of the object.
The study of neural development provides crucial insights into the complex interplay between genetics, environment, and experiences in shaping the developing brain. By understanding the neural processes underlying developmental changes, researchers gain a better understanding of cognitive, emotional, and social development in humans.
