Planning session: Noggin training for Latino Network staff

We are preparing a free training for staff and teachers at the Latino Network, a respected local nonprofit that serves to elevate Latino students in Portland public schools, and offer enrichment opportunities. We were thinking about how so many Spanish speaking scientists were fundamentally involved in the development of neuroscience as a field, starting of course with Ramon y Cajal. Letting young Latino kids (and other kids) know about this rich history might encourage them to consider pursuing research into how our brains function to make us who we are, as part of an extraordinary tradition of people just like themselves.
