  6. Seminars & Colloquia
Saturday, November 8, 2008
5:00 AM
170 & 182 Dennison Building

Speaker: Professor Michal Zochowski (U-M Biophysics)

Why are physicists studying the brain? What new angle can they bring to the table? Finally, what did we learn about different aspects of brain function using our research approaches? These are the questions Professor Zochowski will address in connection to brain structure, brain dynamics and brain function.

Detailed Information
All talks are free and refreshments will be served. Visitor parking for the seminars (Central Campus) is across the street from the Dennison Building in the U-M Church Street structure. There is a $2.00 parking charge implemented by U-M Parking Services.
