Dear fellow neuro students,

Join us for our first inaugural student retreat: organized by students, for students. We are here to share and celebrate our science in non-scientific ways! There is never enough time to get to know your peers—even when everyone is finally gathered at one place at the official retreat! House Prefrona presents you with a fun, student-only department-sponsored event with live music, performances, free food, games with prizes, and other goodies! We are here to celebrate science as scientists in-the-making. Get sorted into a Neurohouse and join us as we come together for a day of sharing our science all through fun & artistic activities in friendly competition!

Register below to RSVP and complete the Neurohouse Sorting Questionnaire. Sorting results with final Neurohouse teams will be released the first week of November.

Ask me about the pretty brain pictures I play with.

I’m a nerd, you’re a nerd, we’re all nerds. Let’s celebrate that.

You either know me or don’t. Either way is fine. It’s time to enjoy science and have some fun.

Giselle Rojas

I’m that one crazy lady who gives mice psychedelics.
