SUMMARY:Pi Day at The Franklin Institute
DESCRIPTION:There’s no stopping brainy fun on Pi Day!\nDon’t be irrational and join us for Brain Awareness Day with a Pi Day twist! Let’s get rolling into the world of neuroscience with hands-on activities\, engaging demonstrations\, and expert dissections. On this day\, you can have your Pi and eat it too! \nThe Philadelphia Chapter of the Society for Neuroscience (pcSFN) is proud to host Brain Awareness Day at The Franklin Institute in partnership with Temple University’s Psychology and Neuroscience Program and Cooper Medical School of Rowan University. Faculty and students will help guide attendees through engaging neuroscience activities\, including holding real\, preserved animal brains. \nBrain Awareness Week (March 16-22) is a global campaign celebrated annually in March to promote brain science\, made possible through generous funding from the International Brain Research Organization. \nProgramming Round-Up:\n-Pi Reciting Challenge: Transcend our science performers! Find a roving performer with the Pi Day cart who will hand out stickers for you to proudly display your Pi knowledge.\n-Federal Donuts & Chicken: The first 314 who find the Pi Day cart and recite the digits of Pi will receive an exclusive Spiced Apple Pie donut\, in partnership with Federal Donuts & Chicken\, to celebrate Pi Day.\n-Pi in the Sky Tonight Show: Journey a(round) the universe and uncover the mysteries of curves and spheres in space. This interactive show explains the math and physics behind planets\, orbits and other celestial bodies.\n-Brain Awareness Stations: 15 hands-on science stations around the museum offering additional programming around Brain Awareness.\nHighlights include:\nUse Play-Doh to learn about the main cells of the neurons\, and model your own neurons.\nSee real human brains and the brain of many species such as snakes and dolphins to learn more about how brains differ based on function. Hosted by Mr. Brain Dude.\nLearn all about the importance of art in studying neuroscience by doing a scavenger hunt and drawing your own brain-inspired creations.\nModel the importance of your skull (and wearing helmets) by dropping a plastic egg filled with candy and then trying to create your own “skulls” to protect the egg.\nVisualize DNA by using candy to make your own DNA strands.
