Columbia University's Zuckerman Institute

Neuroscience and improv? Check out @columbiamag’s profile of postdoc @RajyashreeSen, a social behavior researcher who founded the Lab—an improv troupe that uses comedy to communicate science to the public!

Join us for the next Music on the Brain: From Signal to Sound!

MRI pioneer Dr. Tommy Vaughan and saxophonist Patience Higgins will explore how we use technology to better understand the brain and how those same ideas connect to music. The evening will also feature live performances by the Patience Higgins Quartet.

Thursday, November 12,  7–8 PM
National Jazz Museum in Harlem

Free and open to the public!

What can math tell us about the mind? Our Center for Theoretical Neuroscience @cu_neurotheory builds mathematical models of the brain that help explain everything from how its electrical activity remains stable to how memories are stored.
Meet some of the scientists advancing this young field, using tools borrowed from physics, statistics and other disciplines.
