CONNECT
One of our primary goals is to connect students with resources available in their locality or easily accessible online. We aim to connect students to professionals in their fields of interest in hopes that they gain first-hand perspectives that will help them.
COLLABORATE
As a student-led organization, a key pillar to successful functioning is collaboration. We strive to create a platform for equality of knowledge and bring other groups and organizations to the table to share interesting perspectives. We also hope to collaborate with cohorts of health professionals in the field of neuroscience to provide students with a wide variety of information.
CONTRIBUTE
Since our organization is based on healthcare, science, and medicine, it comes as no surprise that our #1 priority is to serve our communities for the greater good. We plan on supporting free clinics and mobile clinics across the globe through awareness campaigns, donations, and fundraising to advocate for and assist those in need.
