Started a #postgrad learning journey. Learning #neuroscience #research and how it can be applied to the field of #socialwork. This is the result - https://t.co/TF8PbXkAFV. Now I 🥰 🧠 stuff.

Just finished a new workshop called Love & the Brain with students in grades 4, 5, and 6. The students wrote the workshop was "fun" and "cool," and they loved learning about Frankie the Frontal Lobe. That is just one of the many reasons why I love my job. #Projekt48

I'm still in #BrainAwarenessWeek mode :-). Sharing a fun memory from last week. Students in the Brain Science Club decorated lab coats to get ready for brain dissections. Email [email protected] to register for the Club. #Projekt48 #Neuroscience #MentalHealth #BrainScienceClub

Closing #BrainAwarenessWeek with a short intro. I'm Natasha, a social worker and creator of the Brain Science Club. I love to spend my time sharing the adventures of Benny the Brain, Coco the Corpus Callosum, and Mrs. Limbic with children and adults. #Projekt48 #Neuroscience

It's #FrankieFriday! Meet Frankie the Frontal Lobe, another fantastic character from the Brain Science Club. I call him the #Beyonce of the group. Next to my Frankie is my canine pal, Frankie. She is the sweetest dog in the world and lives in #Barbados. Happy #BrainAwarenessWeek

It's #BrainAwarenessWeek and #ThankfulThuraday. I'm thankful for this sweet picture of a second grader learning about Benny the Brain and his friends, the four lobes. #Projekt48 #BennytheBrain #Neuroscience #MentalHealth

Meet Coco the Corpus Callosum. Inspired by Coco (my cat), he's another fantastic character from my Brain Science Club. Coco was the best cat ever who unfortunately died last August from a seizure. Naturally, I memorialized him in my work. #BrainAwarenessWeek #Projekt48 #Coco

[Natasha A. Atkins, MSW @Projekt48]

Meet Mrs. Limbc. Inspired by Mrs. Doubtfire, she's one of the fantastic characters from my Brain Science Club. Happy #BrainAwarenessWeek #BrainAwarenessWeek2023 #Projekt48 #MrsLimbic #Neuroscience #MentalHealth

It's #BrainAwarenessWeek, and I'm celebrating with #BennytheBrain and his friends, the Four Lobes, from my Brain Science Club - a popular #neuroscience program for ages 10-14. Fun fact: the program is being taught in Spanish to students from Colombia & Venezuela.
