Girls in Summer Camp a big success!

Prof. O’Neil taught a neuroscience module in the 2022 GIS Summer camp in Middletown, CT.

Campers learned about the 4 major lobes of their brain, doing activities to exercise each lobe, and then created a “brain hat” to show off their lobes.

Campers also learned about how our brains are connected to the rest of our body via neurons.  The class built a neuron circuit and tried to send a signal from one side to another as fast as they could.
