Neuro-Fashion Show at Centre for Creative Brain

On Thursday 22 February 2024, St Edmund Hall’s Centre for the Creative Brain (CCB) and the Wellcome Centre for Integrative Neuroimaging (WIN) hosted their highly anticipated and sold-out event ‘Neuro-Fashion Show’.

Kicking off the event was a captivating neuroscience-themed musical performance by the talented Oxford WINstruments. Next, our models took the spotlight, strutting down the catwalk adorned with an array of neuroscientific tools, such as electroencephalography caps, sleep bands, and a transcranial magnetic stimulation machine! Serving as the evening’s emcee, Michael Sanders shared insightful commentary on the software showcased on the red carpet. Finally, the audience were invited to try out the tools and to engage in discussions with Oxford neuroscientists who use these instruments in their daily research.

With many thanks to St Edmund Hall, Professor Charlotte Stagg, Michael Sanders, the Wellcome Centre for Integrative Neuroimaging, the Centre for the Creative Brain committee, as well as the dedicated models, musicians, and photographers, who collectively made this public engagement event a resounding success!
