Neuroscience Colloquium SeriesFall 2024 - Winter 2025The Neuroscience Colloquium Series is an opportunity for both students and faculty members to attend a lecture from a researcher to learn about the groundbreaking advances being made in field. Lectures will take place in-person on Fridays, starting at 11:30am. Weekly notices will be distributed advertising the speaker in more detail.
