Full Description:: As part of Brain Awareness Week 2023, Queensland Brain Institute (QBI) researchers Professor Pankaj Sah, Professor Jason Mattingley, Dr Dhanisha Jhaveri with Emeritus Professor Roly Sussex from the University of Queensland will give us an insight into the amazing human brain. The researchers will delve into topics like what we know about attention and decision-making, brain plasticity and the effects of stress on our brain.

The more we understand about the brain, the closer we get to realising its potential and the closer researchers edge towards therapies and treatments that will improve the lives of people worldwide. The brain is our most complex organ, and there is much yet to discover about how it works and what happens when it doesn't. At this event, you'll hear from some of the brightest minds in neuroscience as QBI celebrates its 20th year in research.
