join the BraiNY Bunch virtual journal club!
The BraiNY Bunch is an open, virtual journal club co-led by two students (high school and/or early college), mentored by a graduate student, postdoc, or research staff. BraiNY Bunch will provide attendees with the opportunity to learn about different areas of neuroscience through careful reading and discussion of scientific findings. If you sign up to attend, all attendees will receive the paper a week prior to the presentation. Join to hear the presentation and to participate in discussion and Q&A!
