Title: | Brain Gain – Discovering Neurosciences: A digital education outreach project for higher education students | Authors: | Laranjo, Mariana Amaral, Sara Caetano, Carolina Santos, Sílvio Campos, Rita Peça, João Seabra, Catarina M. |
Issue Date: | 2023 | Publisher: | Portland Press Limited | Serial title, monograph or event: | Biochemist | Volume: | 45 | Issue: | 2 | Place of publication or event: | London | Abstract: | Brain Gain is fighting the ‘brain drain’ by democratizing information on research and careers in neuroscience through a series of open-access and digital education outreach events targeting higher education students, including online talks, pitch challenges, a podcast and a mentorship program. So far, we have reached over 1000 students and our initiatives have been rated as excellent by participants and scientists. Brain Gain initiatives are proving to be effective in inspiring higher education students, providing different resources on career paths, in the neuroscience field, and strengthening the relationship with scientists and universities. | Description: | Funding: Biochemical Society – Scientific Outreach Grants; International Brain Research Organization (IBRO) Global Engagement Seed Grant Award; Portuguese Society for Neurosciences (SPN) – Initiatives Support; Institute for Interdisciplinary Research, University of Coimbra (III-UC) – Promotion of Scientific Culture Grant; European Society for Clinical Investigation (ESCI) – Science Communication Grants. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10316/107263 | ISSN: | 0954-982X 1740-1194 |
