The rapid emergence of neuroscience as a multifaceted, interdisciplinary field distinct from traditional sciences has outpaced the progression of standardized science curriculum. This disparity presents neuroscience professionals with the unique opportunity to edify the public as the discipline evolves. To that end members of the Central Ohio Chapter of the SfN formed Neuroscience Education: Urban and Rural Outreach (NEURO) with the primary goal of communicating key neuroscience principles to kindergarden-12th grade students using an inquiry based approach. By demystifying science at an age when students are beginning to form lifelong interests, NEURO hopes to contribute to public education and kindle an interest in basic scientific research. Graduate student members with the assistance of faculty advisors have designed in-class activities on the topics of vision, language, attention, neuroanatomy and memory. Each module includes the relevant anatomy, hands-on experiments, description of the basic science ...
