 Albert Nerenberg is an award-winning filmmaker, journalist and “Laughologist” for CBC radio. His feature documentary Laughology recently played to sell out crowds at the Hot Docs and Just for Laughs Film Festivals. Laughology was called "screamingly funny" and the most comprehensive filmed study of laughter ever.
Nerenberg has been traveling the world researching the source and nature of contagious laughter. He has developed a contagious laughter health method called “Laughercize”, which is being used to help rehabilitate drug addicts. “Laughercize” is now taught by instructors around Canada for general wellness. Nerenberg also developed the Laughter Party which is a new way of integrating more laughter into everyday life.
He recently penned a 10 part series on the Neuroscience of Positivity for the Montreal Gazette. As a filmmaker, his work has been the subject of retrospectives at the Cinematheque Quebecoise and the Just for Laughs festival in Montreal.
