Do Microbes Shape Your Brain?
Join us to explore what neuroscience can teach us about the contributions of our microbes to brain development. Via interactive demonstrations and hands-on activities, we will discover the incredible impact of microbes on our brain growth and learn about the ways that our lifestyles (for example, antibiotic overuse) may be affecting our microbes and therefore our brain development. All age groups are welcome!
