If you are interested in how the brain works, what it does, and want to learn about creating healthy mental habits, then please do register below for this in-person event.We have a number of academics that will present talks on the day and can help to answer: What do we know and what are we discovering about the form and function of the human brain? How does our Brain Work? How do we make big decisions, and how do these decisions impact our lives? How can we optimise our mental health?
