Neuro-enhancement | NERRI Workshops

This fall the NERRI Project is sparking debate on neuro-enhancement through a series of workshops taking place in selected high schools.

The first school to welcome us is ES Carolina Michaëlis. Two groups of students have already attended a lecture with Prof. Alexandre Quintanilha, which kicked off this series of workshops that will be replicated in a few other schools.

These workshops entail a talk on 'smart drugs', a session on memory improvement and memorization techniques, and a game wherein players are required to reflect upon the question in hand and take a stand concerning political positions.

The neuro-enhancement workshops lead the way towards the wrap up of the NERRI Project and help collect some very valuable data.
