Brain Day Auckland Venue Changes Due to Popularity
Brain Day Auckland Venue Changes Due to Popularity of
Lectures
The
Neurological Foundation and Centre for Brain Research at the
University of Auckland, the organisers of Brain Day
Auckland, have announced a change of venues due to the
popular demand of tickets to the key lectures and discussion
panels. Brain Day was to be held at the University of
Auckland’s newly revamped Grafton Campus and will move to
last year’s venue of The University of Auckland’s
Business School for the Saturday 16 March event.
Director of the Centre for Brain Research
Professor Richard Faull says the choice to move was made to
ensure all those interested in attending lectures and
discussion panels could be catered to. “While we were very
excited to have the opportunity to showcase our new Grafton
Campus, we simply didn’t have the capacity for the very
large numbers of people wanting to attend talks. All six key
lectures were booked out soon after tickets became
available. Success comes in all sorts of packages and this
just reflects what a huge success Brain Day has
become.”
Event tickets already booked will
remain valid at the new venue – and more tickets are now
available.
The theme for Brain Day Auckland is
Your creative brainYour creative brain, and in
addition to the popular lectures and discussion panels,
interactive art, music and neuroscience demonstrations will
be on show to entertain the whole family. Over 30 community
groups will have information stands at the interactive
community expo on-site.
Brain Day Auckland 2012
was the highest-attended (globally) in the history of Brain
Awareness Week.
