Brain Blocks: your brain is your superpower!

As part of Brain Awareness Week 2025, Dr Rana Fetit, a postoc in Anna Williams' lab,  delivered a number of workshops at Danderhall Primary School and Little Muslims children's group in Edinburgh. She engaged and inspired young minds by helping them learn about:

• different parts of the brain and their functions
• what our brains are made up of
• how we study them it in our labs
• how to keep it healthy as we grow

It was lot's of fun for all with plenty of excitement and curiosity.  One four-year-old said, "neurons are like trees with roots and branches that talk!"
