Invitation to An Evening in Neuroscience
Grey Matters is the University of Washington’s undergraduate neuroscience journal, committed to making neuroscience accessible and exciting for everyone through our quarterly journal and our annual event, An Evening With Neuroscience.
An Evening With Neuroscience is a casual, fun event that anyone and everyone, no matter their background in neuroscience, is invited to. It’s intended to celebrate those remarkable brains of ours, and gives everyone the opportunity to engage directly with researchers and clinicians at the forefront of the neuroscience field!
This event will be held over four consecutive Friday evenings, with different activities and raffle prizes for each day. We will be posting links weekly to each of the live stream events on our Facebook event page and the Grey Matters Facebook page, as well as on our website, greymattersjournal.org/ewn. Our first event begins this Friday!

If you want your questions answered at the panel, submit them here. Make sure to tune in for a lively and interactive discussion about the world of neuroscience and its applications in all of our lives!
Live closed captions will be available for all livestreams. We understand limitations posed by live closed captioning programs, and therefore will be reuploading the live stream with edited captions afterward. During the stream, there will also be an opportunity to send in questions to the panel live!
