Hello everyone,
At this time, I would like to extend my deepest thanks to all of the volunteers who made our Brain Awareness Week events such a success this year. By sharing their time and expertise, these individuals have made tremendous contributions to the MNNs mission of advancing public awareness of neuroscience in our community.
I would especially like to acknowledge Crystal Acosta, PhD student with Drs. Hope and Chris Anderson, who has worked tirelessly to promote and document every one of our events on social media.
