A few weeks ago we welcomed students from Brainwave (@utrechtuniversity) to our institute. They were given a tour of the Netherlands Brain Bank and sleeplab, as well as presentations about research on fMRI, metabolism and Alzheimer’s Disease.
Let's just say, they asked a lot of very good questions!

How can art and neuroscience help us reflect on our own perception and experience of the world? To explore that question, NeuroNarratives has paired eight neuroscientists and artists together so they can create thought-provoking artworks that will be presented in the centre of Amsterdam in 2026.
