BRAINY Visits
Every year in March, we provide FREE neuroscience lessons for students in PK-12. If you work with children in any capacity (schools, afterschool programs, community centers, libraries, organizations, etc), you can request an age-appropriate, interactive neuroscience lesson right in your own classroom/space. Visits are led by our teams of graduate and undergraduate students from different RI universities. If you are interested in hosting a BRAINY Visit, please email us or contact us through social media. Please note that visits typically occur during the weeks surrounding Brain Week (February-March).
Before your visit, you may also be interested in BRAINY Adventures, an online collection of DYI science experiments geared towards teachers and parents.
