Brain Day

Delve into the mysteries of the human psyche with Brain Day at Tūhura Otago Museum! You can join neuroscience experts to see what the inside of your head looks like and how it works.

Walk through the Brain Health Research Centre’s giant 3D inflatable brain, test yourself with brain-deceiving images and optical illusions.

The Flashes of Brilliance exhibition will highlight images from professionals and students in the field of neuroscience, working towards helping the million New Zealanders affected by neurological conditions to achieve a better quality of life.

Talk to Dunedin’s neurological community support groups and learn more about what exactly is going on inside your head.

Celebrate the wonders of the human brain with the Brain Health Research Centre and the Otago community support groups for neurological conditions, including:

Multiple Sclerosis Otago
Brain Injury Otago Region
Essential Tremor Otago
Music for Dementia
Stroke Foundation NZ
Alzheimer’s New Zealand Otago
Bring your whānau, family and colleagues to an informative event filled with information on various other support groups for those one in five kiwis affected by a neurological condition.
