The Center for Compassion and Altruism Research and Education

From Stanford.
You may have noticed a lack of updates lately, but that's only because all the news seems to be old news that I've already covered. Today will be a little different, in that I'm not really covering news at all but an interesting organization. It's the Center for Compassion and Altruism Research and Education (C.C.A.R.E.), which is a Stanford organization that aims to provide research into compassion. They especially focus on compassion's neurological causes and effects.

Their website is full of interesting videos on the subject, with plenty of information on current research projects as well. Even though the graphics show a heavy Tibetan Buddhist influence, all of the organization's research is secular, with some assistance from religious figures.

Anyway, I had never heard of them before, but their outlook is intriguing, so check out their website. It looks like the next news cycle is picking up, so I think I'll have more to post tomorrow!

    Hey. Friends, I want to share with you a great mood from a successfully defended thesis on the bachelor of business administration program. You know, I have been going to this for a long time and, in principle, already assumed in advance that I would most likely seek help from a written service. It so happened that I ordered a thesis on the website: https://dissertations.superiorpapers.com. Yes, of course, high-quality scientific research was not cheap, but it is of great importance for my future.
