DESCRIPTION:Profs and Pints Baltimore presents: “The Science of Curiosity\,
 ” on understanding and cultivating your desire to learn more\, with Todd B.
  Kashdan\, professor of psychology and founder of The Well-Being Lab at Geo
 rge Mason University and author of Curious?\n\n[Doors open at 5. The talk s
 tarts at 6:30. The room is open seating.]\n\nWe’ve all heard that curiosity
  killed the cat\, but in reality\, curiosity is the secret sauce behind hum
 an achievement\, vitality\, deep connection\, and resilience. Often given m
 inimal attention and regarded merely as one of many useful personality trai
 ts\, it actually represents a complex\, high-octane psychological strategy 
 that can be harnessed to live a life that is happier\, richer\, and more me
 aningful.\n\nMove beyond the clichés about curiosity to explore the true me
 chanics of the “hungry mind” with Dr. Todd Kashdan\, whose laboratory at Ge
 orge Mason University serves as an incubator of scientific knowledge on how
  people can live better and reach their potential.\n\nHe’ll begin with a pr
 ovocative look at how curiosity functions. Then he’ll dive into a discussio
 n of curiosity’s diverse dimensions and its benefits as well as its costs. 
 \n\nFrom there he’ll explore a few strategies to cultivate this psychologic
 al strength and look at the downstream benefits of doing so.  \n\nHarnessin
 g the power of curiosity is not just about asking "why?" It’s about underst
 anding the trade-offs we make when we choose where to invest our limited ti
 me and energy. \n\nYou’ll walk away with practical\, science-backed strateg
 ies to boost your own curiosity and channel it for success in your career\,
  your relationships\, and your daily life. (Advance tickets: $13.50 plus sa
 les tax and processing fees. Doors: $17\, or $15 with a student ID.)
