SUMMARY:Society for Neuroscience conference
DESCRIPTION:The Society for Neuroscience conference will bring 30\,000 researchers to Washington DC this November (11/11 – 11/15)\, including many of our NW Noggin (nwnoggin.org) outreach volunteers.  NW Noggin brings together graduate and undergraduate collaborators from the Pacific Northwest\, who since 2012 have developed and delivered their own arts-integrated instruction on the brain and behavior to over 15\,000 academic priority students in Portland and Vancouver public schools. We’ve offered talks from students in neuroscience and art at Portland’s Velo Cult bike shop and pub\, which inform community members about federally funded neuroscience research\, and help train graduates to present their work to a lay audience. \n \nIn partnership with the American Brain Coalition\, we will visit DC area public schools during that week\, introducing them to graduate and undergraduate students\, real human brains\, and art projects designed to engage and inform young people about how their brains work. \nLEARN MORE: NW Noggins Bring #brains2DC! \n \nLEARN MORE ABOUT NOGGIN OUTREACH AT SFN SAN DIEGO… \n \nWe will once again present select outreach volunteers\, new research\, art and evidence of outreach effectiveness to both the House Neuroscience and STEAM caucuses.  The chance to examine\, and work on a short art project will be included.  Three of the four caucus co-chairs represent Pacific Northwest districts where we’ve brought our student volunteers into classrooms and the community.  \nLEARN MORE FROM 2016 STEAMing to DC..! \n \nBuilding excitement and awareness of discoveries in neuroscience through arts-integrated outreach across institutional\, state\, federal and generational lines trains new scientists to collaborate\, and communicate\, and increases awareness and support for further investment in brain research.\n\n\n\nLEARN MORE:   \nNoggins in Congress\, A Briefing with Brains\, Art & Ice Cream!

Noggin operates through the combined effort of students\, scientists\, and artists from Oregon and Washington State. This approach provides volunteers with opportunities for involvement that include: outreach\, teaching experience\, public speaking experience\, networking\, and much more. This multi-institutional outreach facilitates collaboration between the community and institutions of higher education which can often be a difficult gap to bridge. In our efforts to teach the public\, we are also teaching ourselves. As future scientists and educators in the making\, we relish the opportunity to share our knowledge with a thirsty and curious public. During the Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU) Brain Fair in March 2017\, Noggin hosted a table where members of the community approached us with questions that challenged and inspired us to think critically\, and creatively\, which further solidified our understanding of neuroscience. By the end of the day\, we had gone through over 1200 gloves\, which were utilized to hold real brains. Ultimately\, we were stunned by the sheer volume of people who attended this event. Contributing to public understanding of neuroscience and psychology generates a sense of altruism within us because we value the contributions\, and personal connections we make within our community. This was especially evident at Shahala Middle School in February of 2017 when Noggin provided brain demonstrations\, and led students through the construction of pipe cleaner neurons. The students were attentive\, respectful\, and most importantly\, engaged in the educational process. It was uplifting to see the eyes of our future generation light up with excitement as they got a closer look at real human brains. We believe that these experiences will remain with them as they continue on their academic journey. Whether that journey leads them to explore the sciences\, or otherwise\, is a prospect that makes doing outreach so rewarding. If we want to begin solving problems in the world\, it starts with outreach. It’s through collaboration\, and the proliferation of knowledge\, that issues can be resolved. The work we do as volunteers fuels our own drive for scientific knowledge\, and we hope to inspire the same in community members we interact with throughout our NW Noggin outreach. \nPresentation Number: 027.15SU\nPoster Board Number: WW46\nPresentation Time: 10:00am – 11:00am\nLocation: Walter E.
