Brain Blast!

In honor of Brain Awareness Month, every March VBI neuroscientists gather at the Nashville Public Library’s main downtown branch to join in on the worldwide celebration of the brain that brings together scientists, families, schools, and communities.

We aim to have fun and inspire future scientists young and old!

When you spend a Saturday hanging out with neuroscientists, you’ll learn to build a neuron, touch a real brain, and meet some creepy crawly lab critters. Ask a neuroscientist anything you or your kids are curious about, and explore the videos below to learn more about how your brain works.
