Brain and Behavior Institute 2002

Welcome to the home page of the Brain and Behavior Institute at Bryn Mawr College for the year 2002. This Institute (like others in the series) is designed to bring together college faculty and Philadelphia precollege teachers to discuss current understandings of brain function in relation to behavior ... and the implications of those understandings for classroom teaching and education generally. The Institute, which runs from 8 July to 19 July is supported by a grant to Bryn Mawr College from the Howard Hughes Medical Institute.

The Brain - is wider than the Sky -
For - put them side by side -
The one the other will contain
With ease - and You - beside.

Emily Dickinson (1830-1886)
