Did you know that Stony Brook is one of the most diverse schools in the top 100 universities in the country? With this standard it is important that we can celebrate our diversity, and that is what the Neuroscience Axis aims to do! Join us on April 18th for a discussion from esteemed Stony Brook faculty, alumni and staff talking about how their rise to the top was affected by their socioeconomic, racial and ethnic backgrounds. Afterwards, you can get a chance to talk to many more SBU professionals, to connect with them for research, internship and career opportunities. This is an event you won’t want to miss!
