Neuroscience goes to School 🧠🎒
We brought science — in the form of stories about the brain — to the children of Sargento Mor Elementary School.
We welcomed a very curious and enthusiastic group of 11th and 12th-grade students from St. Peter's International School, who visited our labs to learn more about cognitive neuroscience!

Neuroscience Goes to School 🧠🎒
Patrícia Fernandes, from the Dynamic Perception Lab, visited Brasfemes Elementary School to talk about the brain with 1st–4th grade students.
🚀 We participated in the INOVAÇÃO@UC 2025 tech showcase — a vibrant mosaic of innovation of the @ucoimbra.bsky.social!
Thank you to everyone who stopped by to learn more about the science of looking inside the brain and mind. 🧠
