BRAIN AWARENESS WEEK

BUCHAREST, MARCH 10-16, 2008

 

 

Events organized by the National Neuroscience Society of Romania and the Centre for Excellence in Neuroscience, "Carol Davila" University of Medicine and Pharmacy Bucharest

 

How do colors influence our behavior and decisions – insights from behavior testing and event related potentials


1) “Medical neuroscience research: past, present and future” - Presentations and guided visits in the Center for Excellence in Neuroscience main laboratories: Cerebral ischemia lab, Electrophysiology lab, Cell culture lab and Animal behavior lab.


2) “Neuroscience research: from idea to publication” – Public lecture presenting the long road

of research with its ups and downs and the importance of publishing your experiments.


3) “What can event related potentials tell us about how our brain works?” – Public lecture explaining the electrophysiological methods used to investigate rapid brain processes and outlying the most interesting discoveries in this domain.


4) “Combining behavior testing and event related potentials recordings to investigate how our brain processes color in different situations” – practical workshop, students will have the chance to work on a neuroscience project combining EEG recordings with behavior tests.
