{Duke University} Duke Neuro Camp
This camp addresses two primary areas of study within the neurosciences: cognitive neuroscience and neuroethics. In addition to focusing on these two areas of study through workshops, lectures & seminars, students will learn about the broader field of neuroscience through presentations and laboratory tours from researchers affiliated with Duke, especially those working within the Duke Institute for Brain Sciences (DIBS). Topics of these presentations and tours will include perception, decision-making, morality and emergent neurotechnologies, like brain-machine interfaces. Students will also develop a core understanding of central nervous system anatomy and functioning.
{Education Unlimited} Neuroanatomy Camp
In this course, students will learn the anatomy and physiology of various systems in the brain and apply what they know to fictitious neurological patients. Specifically, we will focus on the cerebral cortex, various sub-cortical structures, the visual system, somatosensory system, and the motor system in the brain and spinal cord. The culminating event on Friday will be a case-studies test where you will “act” like neurologists to predict where a lesion in the brain or spinal cord is in a person, as well as “acting” like neuroradiologists in order to predict the symptoms and prognosis of patients with particular nervous system lesions.
{George Washington University} Neuroscience: Biology & Cognition Summer Immersion
This course introduces students to the science of the brain, including areas of perception, attention, and memory, with an emphasis on the role of health and behavior. Students will explore psychiatric disorders and research methods among patient-based testing, psychophysical scaling and animal modeling.
{Ohio State University} Explorations in Neuroscience Summer Camp
Designed for high school-juniors and seniors who have an interest in learning more about the Central Nervous System with an emphasis on the brain and spinal cord. Students will attend presentations that introduce them to the structure of the mammalian brain. Comparisons between various species will be demonstrated. Students will have hands-on experience in examining a human brain and spinal cord. Correlative information on the function of various brain regions will be presented and discussed. Students also will rotate through different research labs during the week to observe how neuroscience research is conducted and to discuss a career in neuroscience with graduate students and faculty in the labs. In addition, they will participate in relevant clinical sessions to demonstrate how neurological function is correlated with the structure and function of various regions of the brain. Students will learn through a variety of approaches including lecture, discussion, debate, games, laboratory visits, and hands-on activities. They will meet with graduate students in the Neuroscience Graduate Program, as well as representatives from the Undergraduate Neuroscience Major to discuss career pathways in Neuroscience and how to be successful as they go through their undergraduate programs.
{University of Southern California} The Brain: Introduction to Neuroscience
Are you considering a career in healthcare, psychology, or the behavioral sciences? Are you otherwise interested in the scientific study of the human brain? In this introduction to the anatomy and function of the brain, you will discover some common and unusual aspects of the brain in everyday life and under abnormal circumstances. You will explore normal brain development as well as abnormal occurrences in the brain and their effects on human function and behavior over the lifespan.
{Wake Forest University} Summer Immersion: Neuroscience Institute
Neuroscience is an exciting and rapidly growing interdisciplinary field encompassing the study of the nervous system and its role in regulating behavior. Students will examine the structure of the brain through hands-on dissection, learn how sensory systems detect stimuli in the environment and how drugs affect the brain, and visit active neuroscience labs as well as conduct exciting neuroscience experiments.
