Brain Awareness Week
What is Brain Awareness Week?
Brain Awareness Week is part of a global initiative, sponsored by the Dana Foundation, that aims to promote scientific learning and understanding of the brain within the community. For almost 10 years, neuroscience & psychology students at Weber State have participated in activities in the community and on campus every March.
Check back for 2025 event information.
To volunteer for any events, contact the Neuroscience Club at wsuneuro@weber.edu.
Community Involvement
Get Involved
Join the Neuroscience Club in March during spring break to celebrate National Brain Awareness Week. We visit schools along the Wasatch Front teaching elementary and high school students about the brain. Your help is needed to make this week a success. You can help all week or just for a few hours. Don't know anything about the brain? We will hold volunteer training sessions.
