大脑公平

The Center for Excellence in the Neurosciences at the University of New England created the annual Brain, Body, and 健康 Fair (formerly called the 大脑公平) to engage the local community in brain exploration. The fair promotes interest in STEM disciplines — neuroscience in particular — within the greater community. 学生, 专业人员, and faculty develop neuroscience-related hands-on activities and experiments for the general public, resulting in a science museum-like experience for the local community. The fair is held in celebration of 大脑意识周. All activities are free and open to the public. 

Fair events include ice skating, free helmet fittings and giveaways, concussion information hands-on microscopy exhibits, sheep brain and eyeball dissections, brain health and wellness information, optical illusions brain games, 虚拟现实演示, 肌肉刺激, 神经科学艺术, learning and memory challenges, 大脑工艺品, 奖, 和更多的.

Created by UNE neuroscientists in recognition of 大脑意识周, our 电子图书馆智博会 is a virtual science-themed library that contains e-books on topics like senses, 大脑解剖, 你的大脑和锻炼, 大脑细胞, 和更多的. The books have links to videos and hands-on activities and are geared towards two different grade ranges, K-3和4-8. 

Held annually in the third week of March, 大脑意识周 focuses on the need for brain research, brings awareness to brain and nervous system disorders, and promotes the wonders of the brain. A special thanks goes out to the city of Biddeford and Mayor Casavant for proclaiming March 15–21, 2021, 大脑意识周.
