SUMMARY:Noggin @ Sunnyside!
DESCRIPTION:WHAT: NW Noggin @ Sunnyside Environmental School \nWe did it!!!\nLearning through mistakes!\n \n \n \n \nWHERE: Sunnyside Environmental School\, 3421 SE Salmon St\, Portland\, OR 97214 \nWHEN: Friday\, January 20\, 9:30am – 12:30pm  \nContacts: Asa Gervich & Jeremy Thomas\, 4th Grade Teachers\, Sunnyside School \n \nBrains and Skills:\nLearning through Mistakes!\nBrains are constantly changing\, depending on what you do\, and what happens to you when you do it. \n \nYour brain is a mass of interconnected wires\, made up of cells\, that let you see\, hear\, feel\, think and move. When you’re born you have about 200 billion brain cells called neurons\, and another 200 billion cells called glia\, that reach out worm-like projections and form connections  –  known as synapses  –  with each other. This process is ACTIVE\, takes energy (food and air) and requires light\, sound\, touch\, muscle movements and other forms of experience. \n \nIt also kills a lot of your cells! In fact\, by the time you’re done with high school\, you’ll have only HALF as many neurons and glia left in your brain! But the ones that remain will be wired up into adult networks that properly route information from your eyes\, ears and body to your brain for perception\, cognition\, and decision making  –  and from your brain out to your muscles to let you move well and act. \n \n4th grade teacher Asa Gervich demonstrates his skill on the drums! \nSometimes  –  like when you’re learning something new  –  you have to think hard about how you’ll move\, and you’ll naturally make a lot of errors. But each error\, each mistake\, is important feedback for your neurons and glia\, which respond by physically changing how they connect. Your brain’s wiring changes\, you get more skilled\, and you’ll require less hard thinking and effort to play the guitar\, make a basket\, give a speech\, ride a bicycle\, drum! \n \nThere is a LOT of new research pointing to the importance of the cerebellum  –  our little brain  –  in so much of what we do implicitly;  that is\, automatically and with ease and skill. And other deep areas of our brains\, including the basal ganglia (a set of subcortical\, “below the cortex” nuclei)  –  along with the cerebellum  –  also let us carry out these skilled\, implicit\, “feel the force” type behaviors. \n \nWe’ll join students to consider what skills and abilities we already have or are developing\, and what it takes to re-wire frontal lobe\, cerebellar and subcortical networks to make this happen (HINT: it takes practice\, practice\, practice  –  and learning from mistakes :). \n \n \nRead for background\nIt’s Just Like Riding a Bike…Except It’s Not!\n \nCOMMITTED PARTICIPANTS\n1. Bill Griesar\, PSU/OHSU/NW Noggin\n2. Jeff Leake\, PSU/NW Noggin\n3. Kai Hosea\, PSU\n4. Julian Rodriguez\, PSU\n5. Isabella Starr\, PSU\n6. Kristin Preston\, PSU\n7. Asha Powell-Stormberg\, PSU\n8.

Roman Cimkovich\, PSU \n \nFROM NOGGIN VOLUNTEER KRISTIN PRESTON (PSU): \n \n“It was wonderful to see the raw enthusiasm and excitement today at Sunnyside! The two fourth grade classes had so many intuitive questions including\, why we do not understand the thoughts in our brains even though we are aware of our thoughts\, and if a brain was transplanted\, would the recipient gain a new brain or a new body?  Such philosophers are ten-year-olds! \nWe also discussed the development of neural pathways in the brain by revealing what happens as we improve at a skill we are learning. We discovered too through Asa’s demonstration on jazz playing\, a mistake can simply be a new note in the song. Like walking through a field of tall grass\, the more we do a thing\, the more fortified the pathway becomes\, and through making mistakes\, we learn and improve all the more!” \nFROM NOGGIN VOLUNTEER ASHA POWELL-STORMBERG (PSU): \n \n“Working at the station with different animal brains was super fun. The kids were all so shocked at the size differences and thought that the brain size was correlated with the intelligence. It was fun to point out the brains with more grooves (surface area) had more intelligence then those with brains with less surface area. \nI also thought it was interesting that both groups of kids wanted to know why we have headaches. It is hard to believe that a 10 year old would be suffering from headaches but I thought it was a great question. Can’t wait for the next teaching experience.” \nFROM JEREMY THOMAS\, 4th GRADE TEACHER \n \n“…the report I got from folks was that it was AWESOME as usual. One of my volunteers said it was the most focused my class has ever been! Thanks so much!” \n

SUMMARY:NOGGIN TALK: Neurobiology and Darkroom Photography: Schizophrenia Through Multiple Lenses
DESCRIPTION:WHAT: Neurobiology and Darkroom Photography: Looking at Schizophrenia Through Multiple Lenses\, a talk by Cassie Ferguson\, MFA and Michelle Kielhold\, Ph.D. candidate at OHSU \n \nThey did it!\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \nWHERE: Honey Latte Cafe\, 1033 SE Main St\, Portland\, OR 97214 \n \nWHEN: Wednesday\, December 7\, 2022; 6:00pm – 9:00pm (talk starts @ 7:00pm) \n \nTake a closer look at the neurobiology of schizophrenia through multiple lenses – literally! Michelle and Cassie draw from their respective practices to highlight the similarities between scientific and artistic experimentation. Discover the importance of collaboration as they discuss common threads between their unique perspectives. \nMichelle Kielhold is a PhD candidate at Oregon Health & Science University under the mentorship of Dr. Bita Moghaddam. Her dissertation work focuses on a gene that has been identified as a potential risk factor in individuals with schizophrenia. By utilizing CRISPR technology to alter gene expression\, she hopes to better understand how variants of this gene can affect behaviour and brain function. \nCassie Ferguson is a Portland-based printmaker and film photographer who received her B.S. in Biology with a Minor in Art from the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa\, and her MFA in Print Media from Pacific Northwest College of Art at Willamette University. In her art practice\, she draws from her experience as a skateboarder\, and uses lithographs and photogravure etchings to document and showcase various aspects of skate culture.

Integrating the arts\, including painting and music in STEM (STEAM) fosters interdisciplinary engagement\, and draws in more people not currently overrepresented in the academic study of neuroscience. \n \nNonprofit NW Noggin (nwnoggin.org) organizes undergraduates and graduates to collaborate\, build community networks and inspire people about neuroscience and art. We bring diverse students excited by research and their own arts-integrated study of the brain and behavior into K-12 public schools\, correctional facilities\, Congress\, houseless youth centers\, coffee shops and pubs to hear to what people already know and what they’d like to know\, and to see where our stories and discoveries from labs and classrooms intersect. We’ve talked with over 55\,000 people since 2012! \n \nNW Noggin is volunteer and free. Many science organizations in the Northwest are paywalled\, and require you to come to them\, excluding many\, and largely serving those with existing resources and privilege. Yet despite minimal budgets\, we successfully raised funds to bring accomplished outreach participants to SfN conferences to present posters and visit K-12 students in Chicago\, San Diego and Washington DC public schools. \n \nIn 2017\, through the efforts of undergraduate members of the Portland State University Neuroscience Club\, we presented our first NogginFest\, a free public celebration of music\, art\, research and brains! We offered live bands\, an art auction\, brain specimens\, art activities and research speakers at the Alberta Rose Theater in Portland Oregon\, and raised money to transport\, house and feed 15 undergraduates at the SfN conference in Washington DC. Our students presented posters and met with 700 students in Turner Elementary School. \n \nWe presented NogginFest again in 2018 and 2019\, with more live musicians\, artists and neuroscience researchers\, funding more student participation at SfN. \nNoggin Fest 2018: The Beauty of the Brain\nNoggins & Noodles @ SfN!\n \nNOGGINFEST 2019!!!!\n \nIn 2020 we paused as the coronavirus pandemic took hold\, but pivoted to a well-attended virtual NogginFest\, supported by a brain awareness grant from the Dana Foundation in 2021. \nNogginFest 2021: Threshold Potential!\n \nIn 2022\, with support from the Dana Foundation\, we returned to an in person NogginFest. The venue (Honey Latte Café) was donated\, and the event brought out over 500 Portland residents who enjoyed music\, held brains\, asked questions\, made art\, heard about research and connected with each other from 2pm until midnight! \nNogginFest 2022: A Mid-Pandemic Revival!\n \nNogginFest is the largest student-run\, free\, all ages celebration of brains\, art and music in the Pacific Northwest\, enthusing and informing a diverse public about discoveries in neuroscience. \nLEARN MORE: NOGGINFEST! \n \nPSU Neuroscience Club Poster\n \nPOSTER: SfN22_Bolen_Ben_PDF \n \n \nCLICK HERE: VIRTUAL POSTER

I have two children of my own and all they could talk about Friday evening was the brains! And I went to a soccer game over the weekend and several MLK Parents approached me asking about the brain activity and how cool they thought it was. They mentioned that their kindergartener was explaining at home that ‘there is a line that runs from my toes to my head and my brain makes my toes work!'” \nI am surprised and overjoyed at the response to your visit. I sincerely hope you consider returning to Dr MLK Jr again next fall. TO all of the students\, I wish you the best in your studies!” \nSincerely\, Teresa Seidel\, Principal\, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Elementary School
