With generous support from the British Neuroscience Association and Cambridge University Students Union, we visited Oxford earlier that term, where the Cortex Club at Oxford Neuroscience hosted a Decision-making Symposium. The speaker line-up took us from memory-guided behaviour into questions of decision-making under uncertainty.
CamBRAIN took part in the Cambridge Science Festival in March 2019, sharing neuroscience with visitors and taking part in the wider programme of public engagement across the city.
The 31st Cambridge Neuroscience Symposium took place in February 2019, continuing the long-running series of neuroscience symposia organised for the Cambridge community.
A panel discussion titled ‘The Believing Brain: Neuroscience of Belief’ was held in June 2018, bringing together researchers and students to discuss the neuroscience behind belief.
