Lauren Madden addresses Xplore Engineering camp participants at the Neural Engineering: Talking & Listening to Nerves session.
At this workshop, participants learn how sensations are turned into feelings and ideas into actions. Instructors will use insects to teach campers how to engineer the nervous system and show you how neuroscience can move robotic arms with brainpower to help paralyzed people walk.
Xplore Engineering is a two day camp designed for alumni and the children in their life entering the 4th through 7th grade. Each summer nearly 200 alums and their kids participate. Through a series of experiential workshops, participants get hands-on experience in a variety of engineering disciplines. They can choose sessions from 15 workshops ranging from neuroscience to self-driving cars.
