​Brain Awareness Week is an international collection of events to promote neuroscience and mental health awareness, the achievements of neuroscience, and the necessity and importance of neuroscience research. Columbia Neuroscience Society hosts our own Brain Awareness Week every year in the spring. Our event is open to the greater Columbia and Morningside community and we welcome attendees of all ages. We will have educational demonstrations with neuroscience technology, fun brain games, brain models, and other neuroscience displays. We will also have an interactive table for kids to learn about the brain. Additionally, we will have information about the research going on at Columbia, snacks that are healthy for the brain, and small prizes.
