Think Neuroscience!
Le’ts dive into the mind-boggling world of the brain and nervous system! We will discover how the nervous system helps us remember, learn, and feel. Through the dissection of a sheep’s brain and observation of a real human brain, and many fun activities, we will explore the different parts of the brain that let us sense the world around us and perform actions with our bodies. With the help of very cute live cockroaches, we will hear the electrical activity of what we think of as silent neurons. We will learn about neurological diseases such as Alzheimer’s and epilepsy, and consider possible solutions that harness our new knowledge of the brain. Come join us in what is regarded as one of the 21st century’s most exciting subjects in science.
