We're so happy you love them as much as we do!! Be sure to check out upennglia.com for outreach resources for neuroscientists and for @PennNeuroKnow articles that bridge the gap between neuroscience research/advances and the public!

Excited to find brain coloring pages for tomorrow's Bring Kids to Work Day! Check out these awesome resources at @PennNGG's Neuro Coloring Pages: upennglia.com/neuro-coloring… 🧠🎨 #BrainScience #KidsAtWork

Last week, Americans had many issues to consider when casting their vote. Recent research suggests a variety of psychological factors may have influenced those decisions...Learn about voting bias in this week's article by @PennNGG student @stephen_wisser pennneuroknow.com/2024/11/12/psy…


#NGG is proud to present our next Thesis Defense given by Brianna Disanza of the @AhrensNicklas and @EBhoj labs! Please join us in person or virtually (DM us for the link) on 11/20. Best of luck, Brianna! #PhAlmostDone 🥳
