Rehabilitation Science Students Present at Society for Neuroscience Annual Meeting

Rehabilitation Science PhD students, Kelly Hawkins, Michael Sunshine, and Tommy Sutor, presented at the Society for Neuroscience annual meeting last month. The SfN is the world’s largest organization of scientists and physicians devoted to understanding the brain and nervous system. More than 30,300 attendees from 80 countries convened in San Diego to hear emerging science from learned experts, collaborate with peers, and explore new tools and technologies at SfN’s 46^th annual meeting.

Great work, Kelly, Michael, and Tommy!
