As scientists, we go to conferences but don’t connect with the local community at all. Thanks to @jscdavis, #BlackInNeuro will be hosting a Brain Carnival during SfN at a local Chicago church for the community to meet Black scientists, play games & learn about the brain 🧠✨

We celebrate the life of Nichelle Nichols, Star Trek actor, trailblazer, and role model, who symbolized to so many what was possible. She partnered with us to recruit some of the first women and minority astronauts, and inspired generations to reach for the stars.
