The Bloomin' Brains Summer Camp is for middle school student interested in a summer "deep dive" into neuroscience and botany. Unfortunately, the camp will not be held in 2021.
The "Bloomin' Brains" neuroscience summer day camp has been held at University of Washington campus during the summer.. It is supervised by teachers, graduate students, undergraduates and UW Faculty. Parents are responsible for providing transportation to and from campus and for providing sack lunches. Campers will have the opportunity to:
Conduct hands-on science experiments
Learn about uses of medicinal plants in Native cultures
Explore the structure and function of the brain
Enjoy field trips to the Burke Museum, Botany Greenhouse, Medicinal Herb Garden, the Hyde Herbarium, and UW Farm
Listen to real scientists talk about their careers
Discover "the art of the brain" by constructing models
Make a plant extract and tie-dye a shirt
