Neuropolicy = Neuroscience + Public Policy
We ask how we can inform policy with science-based evidence, treating neuroscience as a very broad field of studying how we think, decide, relate, and interact with ourselves and the world around us.
No prior experience is needed. Neuropolicy Club is a great fit for students of Psychology, Political Science, PNB, Public Policy, Social Work or related fields but we encourage students of all majors to join!
Prospective members can expect personalized mentoring, mock emergency scenario responses, and lively debate and discussion, alongside opportunities to learn about new and emerging areas in neuroscience. Meetings also include short presentations and discussions on topics such as the reproducibility crisis, social media addiction and doomscrolling, and political polarization and threat cognition.
