We express our work through the realization of the art of the arpilleras where we sew parts of the memory of our country with pieces of colored fabrics and threads.Initially\, the Colectivo started to work in the space of the Valparaíso Ex-prison Cultural Park\, however\, during 2017\, we moved our operation –weekly- to the PRAIS (Integral Health Care and Repair Program)\, Valparaíso. From this place we have been able to strengthen our creative performance by affirming our identity as a cultural group that works to recover the memory of those sites that were used by the civic-military dictatorship to violate human rights.As of 2018\, we have projected our development around the realization of visits to memory and human rights sites\, meetings and talks about memory and also exhibitions of our works in addition to continuing the creation of arpilleras\, now even portraying actual events. With this work\, we fulfill the purposes of: sharing what has been done\, exchanging experiences of action around “popular memory”\, and contributing to the imperative of developing a “pedagogy of memory and human rights” in our country. Our commitment is to go on working against oblivion\, impunity and injustice in Chile. Founding members: María Alicia Salinas (our teacher and former political prisoner)\, Silvia Mazzella (former political prisoner)\, Alicia Olea (former political prisoner)\, Dana Wordes\, Valeria Arancibia\, Gabriela Palleras\, Marisa Chávez. In the course of the years some members have joined and others\, for reasons of work or place of residence\, have not been able to participate. Today\, our teacher\, originally from Santiago\, no longer travels to all sessions for health reasons. The actual nine members are: Silvia Mazzella\, Alicia Olea\, Dana Wordes\, Valeria Arancibia\, Gabriela Palleras\, Nora Torres\, Jacqueline van Rysseghem\, Marisa Chávez and me\, Cecilia Araneda.  We have participated in various human rights events\, universities\, hospitals\, cultural centers\, openings of memory sites and cultural exhibitions. \nhttps://nwnoggin.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/disparo-paco.mp4\nVideo taken by Augustus in Valparaíso\, Chile\, 2019So\, we invite you to explore our recent history through these arpilleras where you could imagine the pain and despair as well as the courage and hope of men and women who believed and fought for a better world. \nLEARN MORE: INDICE CATALOGO ACTUALIZADO

DESCRIPTION:WHAT: Society for Neuroscience Oregon/SW Washington Chapter Meeting \nCanceled due to coronavirus concerns \nWHERE: McMenamin’s Edgefield\, 2126 SW Halsey St\, Troutdale\, OR 97060 \nWHEN: Friday\, April 17 (event goes through Saturday\, April 18) \n \nSociety for Neuroscience Oregon/SW Washington Chapter\nThe Oregon/Southwest Washington Chapter is the local group affiliated with the Society for Neuroscience. Our goal is to be a networking resource for neuroscience students\, postdoctoral scholars and faculty throughout the region. Our annual meeting in the spring brings together scientists to share projects\, network with elected officials and government entities\, and engage with colleagues from across the state. \nApril 17-18\, 2020\nMcMenamin’s Edgefield Winery and Hotel\n2126 SW Halsey Street\, Troutdale\, OR \nThe deadline to register and to submit abstracts is April 10\, 2020. A block of rooms is held under “OHSU Brain Institute” at McMenamin’s Edgefield. Please call the front desk (503) 669-8610 to make your reservation. Rooms will be released on March 2. \nMini-symposium of the Gut Microbiome-Nervous System Axis \nKeynote: The brain-gut microbiome axis: challenges in translation\nEmeran Mayer\, M.D.\, Ph.D.\, Professor of Medicine\, Physiology and Psychiatry\, UCLA Health \nThe gut-brain axis: the example of multiple sclerosis\nSergio Baranzini\, Ph.D.\, Professor of Neurology\, UCSF Weill Institute for Neurosciences \nEmerging roles of gut microbiome in autism\nMaude David\, Ph.D.\, Assistant Professor of Microbiology\, Oregon State University \nMicrobial modulation of zebrafish behavior and brain development\nJudith Eisen\, Ph.D.\, Professor of Biology\, University of Oregon \nEnvironmental challenges\, the gut microbiome\, and behavioral and cognitive measures in mouse models\nJacob Raber\, Ph.D.\, Professor of Behavioral Neuroscience\, OHSU \nInsights into the enteric nervous system: perspectives from a gut stem cell biologist\nAnnie Zemper\, Ph.D.\, Assistant Professor of Biology\, University of Oregon \n \nNW NOGGIN ABSTRACT\nNW Noggin:  Axons & Arpilleras – Addressing trauma and supporting community across disciplines and national boundaries \nGRIESAR\, W.S.* ** *** ****\, LEAKE\, J.* ** *** \nNo happiness or pain\, no more forgetting” \n― Gabriela Mistral \nScience needs investment and diverse perspectives. Integrating arts in STEM (STEAM) encourages more people to get involved. \nNonprofit NW Noggin (nwnoggin.org) organizes undergraduates and graduates to collaborate\, build community networks and inspire people about neuroscience and art. Volunteers benefit from work across disciplines and institutions\, serve as “near peer” role models\, gain skill explaining research\, and think creatively about careers. We’ve met over 40\,000 academic priority K-12 students\, homeless youth\, incarcerated youth and members of the public since 2012! \n \nExtreme inequality defines the United States\, with devastating brain\, health and social consequences\, as more people struggle to access food\, water\, education\, public transit\, healthcare and housing. Concentrated wealth isolates those with extravagant resources from the broader community. Isolation is worsened by degrading rhetoric from political leaders and pundits who protect privileges\, often by dehumanizing others. \nInequality can also lead to the violation of human rights\, and violence. \n \nValparaíso\, Chile\, home to both a long history of neuroscience research and astonishing art traditions\, is currently targeted by a repressive and authoritarian government\, whose leader\, billionaire Sebastian Piñera\, has declared “war” (guerra) on those protesting injustice. \nNoggin partnered with Chilean artist/educator Cecilia Araneda to teach how the art of “arpilleras\,” the sewing of embroidery and patchwork to depict aspects of life\, has helped many express traumatic experiences and contribute to the memory of significant national violations of human rights. \n \nWe participated in a public radio interview and displayed arpilleras and human brains at Street 14 Café during an “Art Walk” in Astoria\, Oregon\, and discussed neuroscience research on stress\, trauma\, memory\, dehumanized perception\, resilience and recovery. \n \nWe then presented and crafted our own arpilleras at p:ear\, a critical community center for support of Portland Oregon youth who lack access to safe\, stable housing\, while answering questions about behavior and the brain. NW Noggin is p:ear’s Community Partner awardee in 2020. \n \nBuilding excitement and awareness of discoveries\, educational options and careers through arts-integrated outreach across institutional\, international and generational lines trains new scientists to collaborate\, engages more communities\, and increases awareness and support for investment in brain research and the arts. \n* Department of Psychology\, Portland State University;  ** NW Noggin (nwnoggin.org);  *** Department of University Studies\, Portland State University;  **** Department of Behavioral Neuroscience\, OHSU \nSewing Memories\, & Brains
