We’re excited to join sophomores and juniors at Roosevelt High School for an afternoon of neuroscience research, extra brains and art! Looking forward to insights and questions from developing adolescent noggins 🙂

From Ezra: “NWNoggin.org will be coming to Roosevelt! Among that team are some RHS grads!!! Students will listen to an intro and presentation from the brilliant folks of NWNoggin and then create artwork in response. I have ordered an array of pipecleaners, fuzzy pom pom balls, beads, elastic string, glue, cotton swabs, rubber bands, and nitrile gloves. I will also spend the week drumming up any random materials I come across. Each session will have anywhere from 50-80 students.”
