| Speaker: | Prof. Samuel Wang Princeton professor, Neuroscientist and author Prof. Wang is best known to the public for the books “Welcome to Your Brain” and “Welcome to Your Child’s Brain”. His current research programme addresses learning and plasticity in the brain. He has a major interest in autism, a disorder in which the cerebellum has disrupted structure more often than any other brain region. He has been widely honoured for his advances in neuroscience and was selected by the American Association for the Advancement of Science as a Congressional Science and Engineering Fellow. |
