Participate in Research
NeuroNights is for anyone who wants to learn more about brain injury survivors, research, and clinical care. Survivors and families affected by brain injury and other neurological conditions are specifically encouraged to attend, but all are welcome to participate. All sessions are online and FREE!
NeuroNights sessions are typically held via Zoom on the 1st and 3rd Wednesdays of each month from 5PM to 6PM EST. The first meeting of each month is an educational workshop featuring researchers and clinicians sharing their knowledge. The second meeting of each month features a survivor sharing their story.
To get involved:
No problem! You can watch all our recorded videos on our YouTube channel.
Yes! We'd love to have you share your story with our group. Sign up to learn more!
NeuroNights is supported by Ohio State's Chronic Brain Injury Program (CBI), Wexner Medical Center's rehabilitation team, and the undergraduate Buckeyes Raising Awareness in Neuroscience (BRAIN) student group - along with funds raised at the annual Brain Injury Awareness 5K Run and 1 Mile Family Walk. Learn more about the race by visiting go.osu.edu/BIA5K!
The Chronic Brain Injury Program staff are happy to help you attend and enjoy NeuroNights. Please email cbi@osu.edu and we will reach out to you!
