Brilliant Brains
At The University of Sussex, on our last visit to the University this year.
On Thursday 3rd July, PCS Year 9 science students enjoyed a day of investigating the fascinating workings of the brain at the University of Sussex.
Pupils were introduced to the study of the brain, including investigating sensation and touch, exploring how robotic limbs can be controlled by external nerve connections, and finding out just how optical illusions trick our brain.
Students also learnt about the wide variety of routes and roles in neuroscience for the years ahead, and enjoyed the chance to ask their questions about the brain.
As we draw to the end of another successful academic year, PCS students and staff would like to thank the University of Sussex for the number of enriching opportunities so many of our students have been involved in over the last year.
From Law to Engineering, from Performing Arts to Maths study sessions and from Creative Writing to Multi-subject taster sessions, all of our aspirational interests have been catered for.
Thank you to the staff in the Widening Participation Team and their fantastic team of Student Ambassadors, we have had an amazing year!
