/// PASSING KNOWLEDGE FORWARD: A SPECIAL INITIATIVE OF THE BRAIN & MIND HONORS RESEARCH PROGRAM

This year, for the first time, current students of the “Brain & Mind” Honors Research Program met graduates who spoke about their life experiences after the program and graduation in general. Throughout the evening, the graduates talked about how the knowledge they acquired during the program, and throughout their degrees, helped them get where they are today - both within academia or outside of it.

This event was the beginning of a wonderful tradition in which graduates will meet current students every year to share their knowledge, experiences, and expertise and help them pursue their goals. Dr. Limor Shtoots, Head of the “Brain & Mind” Program, led this initiative and the attendees were grateful both to her, and to the alumni who returned home to help and guide current students.
