This event is organized by the Cognitive Neuroscience of Memory Lab, Psychology Department, Villanova University. As neuroscientists who study memory, we have observed the devastating effects of brain injury in many stroke patients, and we want to do our part in raising awareness about brain aneurysms. We want to give something back to these patients who so generously contribute to our understanding of the consequences of brain injury on cognitive functions.
