The countdown begins, and we’re starting with the first two challenges.

🧠 BRAIN HUNT
Think fast. Move faster.
New teams will take on a campus-wide race filled with hidden neuro clues, puzzles, and challenges. Explore the AKU campus, put your neurological knowledge to the test, and race against the clock to reach the finish line.

🔬 FROM QUESTIONS TO CONCLUSIONS: A RESEARCH SHOWCASE
From an initial question to a final conclusion - watch research come to life. After two weeks of hard work, participants will step onto the stage to present their original research, sharing the journey from hypothesis and methodology to findings and conclusions.

We had an insightful and engaging session exploring what it takes to turn a research idea into meaningful, publishable work - from developing a strong research question and designing a study to data analysis, manuscript writing, submission, and navigating peer review.

A big thank you to Dr. Laila Mohammad for sharing her expertise, experiences, and practical insights, and to everyone who joined us and contributed with thoughtful questions.

NSIG partnered with Cedar College to launch NeuroCamp, a summer neuroscience programme designed to introduce high school students to the fascinating world of the brain.

Across 10 sessions in DHA and PECHS campuses, students explored different aspects of neuroscience, building their understanding through engaging discussions, activities, and hands-on learning.

We concluded the programme with a thought-provoking session on the Neuroscience of Consciousness, led by Dr. Ather Enam, offering students an opportunity to engage with one of neuroscience’s most complex and enduring questions: the biological basis of conscious experience.
