The Neurocenter of Unige and L'Hopital Cantonal de Genève (HUG) will hold during the International Week of the brain and workshops visits to laboratories conducting research on various aspects of the brain and its functioning. We know how such visits can have a motivation for students, especially when prepared - With questions for example. They can also help students in their choice for their studies. They also allow students to get an idea of what the researcher discovered that they are not necessarily men and they do not all have thick glasses or a cap screw on the head .. . an image that would not want to follow this career!

As last year, two different formulas are available for classes:

Research Workshop (1h30) Students address realistically the various stages of research. They try to solve a problem by developing a scientific experiment and analyzing experimental data with the help of a researcher. A laboratory tour is also planned during the workshop. The work is designed specifically for college students but uses real scientific data. Please note that some workshops, students should bring a calculator.
Please check with the person responsible for registrations. Visit
laboratory (duration 45 min) As in previous years, different laboratories welcome classes to present their research and illustrate them through demonstrations.
