Dr. Lise Eliot, professor of neuroscience at Rosalind Franklin University of Medicine and Science, will present the Biological Sciences colloquium on Friday, March 7, at 3 p.m. in Wehr Life Sciences 111. In her talk, “Neuroplasticity and the Origin of Gender Difference,” Eliot will discuss her work on brain and gender development, especially the role of neuroplasticity in shaping neural circuitry and behavior.
The Biological Sciences Department’s Friday Seminar Series is supported by the Scholl Endowment. Eminent scientists are invited to the department to deliver seminars, and students have ample opportunity to engage these scientists in individual or group conversation.
