SUMMARY:Velo Cult: The Secrets of Parkinson's & Dance
DESCRIPTION:WHAT: What do mistakes teach us? @ Velo Cult with Rebecca Hood\, Behavioral Neuroscience\, OHSU and Krystal Ngene\, Danielle Ali-Cassim\, and 20 dancers from the Kúkátónón African Children’s Dance Troupe \nWe did it! LEARN MORE at the link! \nParkinson’s\, Dance & Mistakes\n \n \nWHERE: Velo Cult\, 1969 NE 42nd Ave\, Portland\, OR 97213 \nWHEN: Wednesday\, May 2\, 2018\, 6:00pm – 8:00pm \n \nMistakes are essential to learning in research and dance.  \nDiscover the role of error in acquiring skills\, and advancing both science and art with Rebecca Hood of OHSU and brilliant performers from the Kúkátónón African Children’s Dance Troupe! \nAll the inventions that the world contains\,\nWere not by reason first found out\, nor brains;\nBut pass for theirs who had the luck to light\nUpon them by mistake or oversight. \n–Samuel Butler \nScientists aren’t perfect\, as much as they’d like to be. The mistakes that researchers make aren’t usually mentioned in the papers they produce\, leaving out a valuable (and often huge) part of the story. From a botched brain surgery that revolutionized the way we understand Parkinson’s disease to the discovery of anesthesia\, join us as we talk about mistakes in science and the discoveries that can come from them. \n“While music alone can unlock people with parkinsonism\, and movement or exercise of any kind is also beneficial\, an ideal combination of music and movement is provided by dance (and dancing with a partner\, or in a social setting\, brings to bear other therapeutic dimensions).” – Oliver Sacks \n \nLearning to dance involves extensive trial and error\, exquisite timing\, and trains some of the same brain networks involved in acquiring other fluid skills\, networks also impacted by Parkinson’s.  \n \nLEARN MORE: Basal ganglia @ Beaumont! \nKúkátónón’s mission is to inspire confidence\, commitment and vitality among the children in the dance troupe\, their families and communities; and to broaden awareness of African and African American cultural traditions throughout Oregon. Our Troupe performs to West African rhythms through song\, instrument and dance. \nUpcoming Events: \nPublic African Dance Workshop on Saturday\, May 12th from 1:30-3pm at Peninsula Community Center  \nPartner with the Pan African Festival on Aug 11\, 2018 \nKukatonon End of Year Show – June 9th \n \nNW Noggin Velo Cult events are always free\, open to the public\, child friendly\, and feature access to amazing beer (scroll here for current tap list)\, wine\, coffee\, tea\, sodas and sandwiches…

SUMMARY:SfN ABSTRACTS DUE!
DESCRIPTION:Abstracts for the annual Society for Neuroscience (SfN) conference are DUE Thursday\, May 3 by 5pm Eastern Daylight Time (EDT)… \n \nLEARN MORE: Call for Abstracts \nSEE WHAT WE DID LAST TIME IN SAN DIEGO…  \nA network grows in San Diego\n \nNW Noggin is submitting an abstract for the conference\, which is scheduled for November 3 – 7 in San Diego\, California. An evolving draft version is below… \n \nNW Noggin:  homelessness and the brain – seeing us all through research and art \nGRIESAR\, W.S.* **\, LEAKE\, J.* ** *** \n“It’s like people see me as an object\, not as a human being.” \nScience needs investment\, and engaging people builds support for research and education. Integrating arts in STEM (“STEAM”) fosters innovative engagement. Here we report on efforts to bring together new researchers and outreach volunteers\, clinicians\, policy makers and\, as equal participants\, young members of our community who lack safe\, secure places to call home. \n \nNonprofit NW Noggin (nwnoggin.org) organizes graduates and undergraduates to collaborate and engage\, building networks and inspiring people about discovery in neuroscience and art. Volunteers benefit from working across disciplines and institutions\, serving as “near peer” role models\, gaining skill explaining work and thinking creatively about careers. We’ve met with over 20\,000 K-12 students since 2012! \n \nNoggin loves to visit p:ear\, a nonprofit for homeless youth. P:ear offers community\, services\, and a welcoming educational and gallery space in Portland\, Oregon\, filled with caring staff and volunteers for young people without safe places to sleep. \n \nWe’ve had powerful conversations with adolescents struggling to overcome drugs\, anxiety\, depression\, abandonment\, bias  –  and a strong sense that many people pass them by as if they weren’t valuable human members of our community. \n \nHarris & Fiske (2006) found that people respond harshly to those in “extreme outgroups\,” including those without homes. These street kids are correct  –  some respond to them with “dehumanized perception.” Yet by asking subjects to engage with images of outgroup members\, there is more activation of frontal lobe networks essential for responding to others as relatable human beings. Young people at p:ear created landscapes on plaster brain casts that powerfully conveyed their feelings\, significant locations\, and both actual and aspirational aspects of their lives in our shared community. \n \nIn fall 2017\, we put on a “Homelessness and the Brain” day at p:ear\, and policy makers\, clinicians\, members of the public\, young researchers from OHSU and PSU and houseless youth talked\, listened and learned from each other about research on stress\, anxiety\, depression\, sleep\, emotional regulation\, drugs\, development\, bias and resilience\, and explored data\, art and testimony from p:ear youth to illuminate links between a lack of affordable housing and all our brains. \n \nLEARN MORE: Landscapes of the Brain: Seeing us all through research & art \nBuilding excitement and awareness of discoveries in neuroscience through arts-integrated outreach across institutional\, state\, federal and generational lines trains new scientists to collaborate on important community concerns\, and increases awareness and support for investment in brain research and the arts. \n \n* Department of Psychology\, Portland State University;  ** NW Noggin (nwnoggin.org);  *** Department of University Studies\, Portland State University \n

SUMMARY:OHSU Lecture: Suzana Herculano-Houzel
DESCRIPTION:Trade Food for Thought to Power 86 BILLION Neurons\n\n\n\n\nHow much energy does a #brain require? How many brain cells do you have? Are we unique in terms of brain size\, number of neurons\, or social skills\, tool use\, deception\, play..?\nLEARN MORE HERE AT THE LINK!\nSoup for Brains!\n \nMonday\, May 7\, 2018\n5:30 (for volunteers!)–8:30 p.m.\nNewmark Theatre\, 1111 SW Broadway\, Portland\, OR 97205 \nNoggin volunteers should arrive by 5:30pm for set up… \nIf an elephant has such a large brain\, why aren’t they smarter than primates? What biologic discovery led some primates to an evolutionary crossroads of cognitive capability? You may be surprised by the answer. \n\n\n\nSuzana Herculano-Houzel\, Ph.D.\n \n\nSuzana Herculano-Houzel is a Brazilian-born neuroscientist and associate professor at Vanderbilt University\, where she studies what different brains are made of\, what changes (or doesn’t change) with different brain sizes\, how much energy they cost\, and what difference does all that make – especially in the context of how human brains compare to others. She  recently published a trade book\, The Human Advantage\, telling the back story to her research on human and elephant brains – and how cooking allowed us into existence. \nShe is also the author of a biweekly column on the neuroscience of everyday life for Folha de São Paulo\, the major newspaper in Brazil. Going on to its 11th year\, the column has featured over 270 appearances since 2006. Suzana is also the author of six other books (in Portuguese) on the neuroscience of everyday life\, including Our Daily Brain\, Sex\, Drugs\, Rock’n’Roll… and Chocolate\, Why is Yawning Catching? and Drops of Neuroscience for a Better Life. \nShe lives in Nashville\, TN\, with her husband\, son and two dogs. \nCOMMITTED NOGGIN VOLUNTEERS\n1.

SUMMARY:OHSU Lecture: Adele Diamond
DESCRIPTION:The “Secret Sauce” to Honing the Mind\n \nNew post! Learn more at the link…\nDiamond advice: brains\, art\, stories & play\n \n \nMonday\, May 14\, 2018\n5:30pm (for Noggin volunteers!)–8:30 p.m.\nNewmark Theatre \nNoggin volunteers should arrive by 5:30pm for set up… \n\n\n\n\nExecutive function skills – self-control\, perseverance\, creativity – are more predictive of success than IQ. What supports and what hinders these skills? The surprisingly nutritious brain benefits of play and movement. \n\n\n\nAdele Diamond\, Ph.D.\n \nAdele Diamond is the Canada Research Chair Professor of Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver. She is a member of the Royal Society of Canada and was recently recognized as one the 15 most influential neuroscientists alive today. \nProf. Diamond is at the forefront of research on ‘executive functions’ and on the brain’s prefrontal cortex on which they depend. Executive functions include ‘thinking outside the box’ (cognitive flexibility)\, mentally relating ideas and facts (working memory)\, and giving considered responses rather than impulsive ones\, resisting temptations and staying focused (inhibitory control\, including selective attention). \nShe has made discoveries that have improved treatment for two different medical disorders and discoveries that have impacted education\, improving the lives of millions of children. Her work has shown that executive functions can be improved even in the very young. \nAdele Diamond was educated at Swarthmore (B.A.\, Phi Beta Kappa)\, Harvard (Ph.D.)\, and Yale Medical School (postdoc). Her many awards include an honorary doctorate (Honoris Causa) from Ben-Gurion University\, the Bronfenbrenner Award for Lifetime Contributions to Developmental Psychology in the Service of Science and Society\, named a “Woman of Distinction” by the YWCA\, and named one of the “2000 Outstanding Women of the 20th Century.” \nCOMMITTED VOLUNTEERS \n1.

How many brain cells do we have? Are humans unique in terms of brain size\, number of neurons  –  or social skills\, tool use\, deception\, or play..? How do you make “brain soup?” And what’s the best way to bring fresh cerebrums on an international flight?!

I had students do a short write up on their favorite part of STEAM Night and the brains came up a lot! Thanks for the excellent experience you gave our students and families.” \n \nWHERE: Boise-Eliot/Humboldt PK-8 School – 620 N Fremont St\, Portland\, OR 97227 \nWHEN: May 17th from 5:30-7:30 \nBoise-Eliot/Humboldt is a STEAM-focused public school! \n \nLEARN MORE: Boise-Eliot/Humboldt STEAM Vision Statement \nFrom Darshanpreet “Darcy” Gill\, the STEAM Instructional Specialist: “So pumped! The brains are already the talk of STEAM Night!” \n \nFrom their website… \nSTEAM education is active and has student-centered learning at its core. Through a focus on inquiry-based instruction\, we seek to build a STEAM program that focuses on integrated units of study that are place-based and relevant to our students and community. \n​We will use experiential learning opportunities to ignite curiosity and provide an opportunity for reflection\, challenging students’ initial beliefs and guiding them in the formation of deeper questions from multiple perspectives. Through this work\, we hope to build a program that connects the classroom to stewardship empowering Boise-Eliot/Humboldt students to take action and educate others as they move along the path toward college and 21st century careers. \nThe Portland Metro STEM Partnership is a regional collaboration of public and private organizations with a shared goal of transforming science\, technology\, engineering\, and mathematics (STEM) education for K-12 students. \nThrough the development and implementation of innovative STEAM teaching and learning practices\, all Oregon students will develop the necessary scientific literacy and technological knowledge they need to excel as citizens of our increasingly complex world. \nThe STEAM transformation of Boise-Eliot/Humboldt will be accomplished by striving towards the following student goals/outcomes: \n1. Motivational Resilience: Constructive Coping\nStudents will demonstrate proficiency in adaptive strategizing skills and persistence in the face of academic challenges\, obstacles\, and setbacks \n2. Motivational Resilience: Academic Engagement\nStudents demonstrate high quality participation in academic work\, including effort and enthusiasm \n3. Cognitive Skills: Metacognitive Skills\nStudents will know a variety of problem solving strategies and tools and be able to choose and strategically use these tools \n4. Cognitive Skills: Problem Solving\nStudents will be able to identify\, frame\, and solve complex problems and apply knowledge and skills to novel problems and/or situations across STEAM subjects \n5. Academic Identity\nStudents will feel a sense of belonging\, competency\, autonomy and purpose as they view themselves and their potential to enjoy and succeed in STEAM classes and careers \nWe visited STEAM Night at another Portland Public School earlier this year..! \nSTEAM Ahead @ Ionotropic Irvington\n \nCome join us! Please RSVP to griesar@pdx.edu and jleake@pdx.edu \nCOMMITTED PARTICIPANTS\nMcKenzie Figuracion\, PSU/NIH BUILD EXITO\nSam Carpenter\, OHSU\nJoey Seuferling\, Noggin Resource Council\nJacob Schoen\, PSU/Noggin Resource Council
