Join us for the 20th Annual HBI Research Day on Wednesday, June 6!

This year our focus will be on Neuroscience innovations and technologies. We will have a panel discussion on how we can move from neuroscience research to discovery. BRAIN CREATE will be hosting a 'Dragon's Den' style pitch competition and we will have a poster session. The day will also feature talks by trainees and poster presentations, followed by a reception from 4 pm - 5:30 pm in the HRIC Atrium.

We are honored to have Dr. Kenneth Maynard, PhD, Director, Global Program Team Effectiveness and Global Program Leader Excellence at Takeda Pharmaceauticals.
