Hi everyone,

This coming Tuesday, October 24th, we are hosting a Career Exploration Panel alongside our Stony Brook Pre-Medical Society! We have invited doctors from psychiatry and child neurology to speak with us about their experiences in their respective careers and the pathways they took to achieve the statuses they currently hold. This event will take place in Melville Library room W4540 from 7-8pm (regular GBM hours for Pre-Med Society). Again, it is Tuesday, not Wednesday this week! No GBM will take place on Wednesday. We hope this panel brings you insight and clarity into your future, and hope to see you all there!

Sincerely,

Neuroscience Axis

Hey everyone!

Here is a short update on this week’s GBM.

This Wednesday (10/4), Neuroscience Axis is going to be collaborating with Active Minds to discuss the biological and neuroscientific basis of specific mental health issues. Since many people are taking their midterms this week, we will also have de-stress activities such as painting and clay-modeling and simulations of mental health disorders such as schizophrenia.

As always, GBMs are held in Life Sciences, Seminar Room 038 at 7pm on Wednesdays.

Good luck on your midterms!

Sincerely,

The NeSA
