Expose Your Nose: Take the interactive smell challenge at the Science Cafe to learn how your brain interprets scent and why smells are strongly connected to memory and emotion.

Brain Dissection Demonstrations: The Millersville University Women in STEM will host live sheep brain dissections. Observe and identify parts of the brain and learn how our brains are different- and surprisingly similar!

Stroke Detectives: The Penn State Milton S. Hershey Medical Center will facilitate this interactive program that turns children into rookie detectives, teaching them about and identifying the basics of stroke and common risk factors. Solve the mystery and help decode our amazing brains!
