Clinical neuropsychologist Jeff Snell, Ph.D., will talk about how the human brain works and effects of brain injury and recovery on functional abilities at the next Lincoln Science Cafe.<\/p>\n

The presentation begins at 7 p.m. on Monday, Sept. 22, at VEGA, 350 Canopy St. in Lincoln. <\/p>\n

Those in attendance are encouraged to stay afterwards for the club’s pub quiz later that evening, where five questions will be from Dr. Snell’s presentation.<\/p>\n

Science Cafes involve a face-to-face conversation with a scientist about current science topics. They are open to everyone (21 and older), and take place in casual settings like pubs and coffeehouses. Each meeting is organized around an interesting topic of conversation. A scientist gives a brief presentation followed by a question and answer period.<\/p>\n
