Thank you to everyone who attended our 5th annual Brewing Biology Event! Dr. Luana Colloca (@luanacolloca.bsky.social) gave a riveting presentation on the intersection between pain, placebo effects, and life experiences.

A big thanks to the Maryland Science Center for hosting our Blossoming Brains event this past weekend! We had so much fun chatting with young kids about the brain and what we do as neuroscientists.

We hope everyone had a safe (and spooky) Halloween! To get in the Halloween spirit, NOVA volunteered at Trick or Treat with UMB - there is nothing more on theme than talking about brains! The kids were able to make a spooky potion using dry ice (a trick) before enjoying some candy (a treat).
