From Engineering to Neuroscience: How Video Games Can Enhance Human Learning at Caltech Science Lecture on May 3

Caltech is hosting a science lecture on May 3 featuring neuroscience graduate student, Sneha Aenugu. The event is open to everyone and especially encourages middle and high school classes to attend. Sneha, who started her career as an electrical engineer before transitioning into neuroscience, will be talking about how her lab at Caltech studies how the human brain learns new skills using video games. She will also discuss her other interests including improvisational dancing, writing, and playing the violin, and how they have influenced her path into the field of science.

Sneha’s presentation will provide teachers with resources to further engage their students and spark their interest in science. It is important for students to see the journey that scientists take to reach their career, not just their day-to-day work. The lecture will take place on May 3 at 10:00 am in Caltech’s Beckman Auditorium and still has space available for middle and high school classes. For those unable to attend the lecture in person, past lectures can be watched on demand at events.caltech.edu.
