Map address
Never before has the prospect for understanding how the brain works been more possible and exciting. We are at the threshold of deciphering human emotions, feelings, consciousness and behavior. Our understanding of our brains and nervous systems—from molecules, cells, circuits and structures to functions for life and human behavior—is one of our most important challenges and opportunities in the 21st century, and is one that Stanford is uniquely poised to play a lead role in unraveling. Please join us for a brief talk then an intimate lunch and discussion with Professor Brian Wandell, Isaac and Madeline Stein Family Professor, deputy director of the Stanford Neurosciences Institute, professor of psychology and professor, by courtesy, of electrical engineering, radiology and ophthalmology.
