"An interest in the brain requires no justification other than a curiosity to know why we are here, what we are doing here, and where we are going."
-Paul D. MacLean

The University of Pennsylvania Neuroscience Society strives to provide a forum of discussion for today’s rapidly developing field of neuroscience. We seek to bring together undergraduate and graduate students who share an avid interest in learning about the human brain and nervous system, to inform these students of potential academic and clinical careers in the field of neuroscience, and to spread awareness of neurological disorders such as Parkinson’s disease and Alzheimer’s disease not only throughout Penn’s campus, but also throughout the greater Philadelphia community.
