Workshop Description
The Faculty for Undergraduate Neuroscience invites you to the pedagogy workshop Rewiring Neuroscience Education: Emerging Trends and Technologies to be held July 16-19, 2026 at North Central College (Naperville, IL). FUN pedagogical workshops are centered around designing, implementing, and assessing neuroscience programs in undergraduate settings. Sessions will include a broad array of ideas, approaches, and techniques, with keynotes focusing on ways colleagues are both leveraging and managing technology in the classroom, and spurring pedagogical innovation; ideas for translating our science, and the technology that fuels it. We encourage you to join us next summer, and consider sharing your own work in a short teaching talk, a pedagogy & lab workshop, a poster, or to organize a mini-symposium with multiple individuals working on the same topic. We encourage submissions that include hands-on or interactive components. Abstract submission opens December 1st. We hope to see you at North Central! Any questions about abstract submissions can be directed to David Donley, or questions pertaining to conference logistics can be directed to Maggie Gill.
