In March 2015, a group of NGG students led by CNI faculty member Maria Geffen organized a two-day, hands-on neuroscience lesson for students at the Independence Charter School in Philadelphia. The team taught the “Build-A-Brain” lesson, which focuses on the specialized functions of different brain regions. The NGG students staffed five stations, each station focusing on a specific brain region and offering an activity to illustrate brain function or sense.
