Brain
Awareness Week 2006
12 - 18 March

The Brain
Awareness Week campaign, now in its eighth year, has united the Society
for Neuroscience with The Dana Alliance for
Brain Initiatives and a coalition of over 440 science, advocacy, and other
health organizations that share an interest in elevating public awareness of
brain and nervous system research. During the week-long educational blitz, Society
members will sponsor a variety of educational activities for the general public
including lectures, lab tours, classroom visits, and exhibits across North America
to demonstrate the importance of basic neuroscience research to the health and
well-being of the American public.
The New Mexico Chapter of the Society and the Department
of Neurosciences at UNM will mark this year's Brain Awareness week with
an annual Neuroscience Day and awards for neuroscience-related
projects and an information booth at the NW
New Mexico Regional Science and Engineering Fair . The 2006 Walker
Award for Neuroscience Research will be awarded at this time.
