Presenters: The WiSE Club

Discussants: Drs. B. Runi Mukherji, Jillian Nissen & Kinning Poon

The WiSE Club will be hosting a set of three short podcast sessions covering women’s issues and perspectives in the field of neuroscience. Following these podcasts, the WiSE Club will offer some questions to the audience about their initial thoughts and perspectives. Afterwards, they will allow for the faculty discussants to offer their perspectives.

The Brain Awareness Week Lecture Series Provides a unique opportunity for experts in the field to actively engage students in their cutting-edge neuroscience research.  Through these lectures students, as well as other campus community members, will be provided with a broad range of neuroscience related education.  These lecture series also supplement the courses offered at SUNY-OW as part of the Neuropsychology Minor.  Further, these lectures bridge the curriculum with real-world applied and translational biomedical research with experts from neighboring institutions as a means to enrich students to become more aware about the brain and its underlying neural mechanisms of action as they relate to neuropsychological health conditions, development, aging, and psychiatric disorders occurring from birth or acquired across the lifespan.
