CANCELLED - The 14th Annual Waterloo Brain Day

CANCELLED - The 14th Annual Waterloo Brain Day - April 6, 2020

The brain is a horrendously complex and poorly understood system that poses both an immense challenge - and possibly rich rewards - to neuroscientists, psychologists, philosophers, and computer scientists. To celebrate Waterloo's Centre for Theoretical Neuroscience, which integrates these approaches to the brain, and to highlight the already established Cognitive Science Program, we have invited four internationally renowned speakers to present generally accessible lectures from each of these perspectives.

Join us early April 2021!
