Congratulations to Eric Chudler and his team at the University of Washington for their 2017 Northwest Emmy Award win for the program “Exercise and the Brain!” Hosted by Chudler, the video discusses the benefits of exercise on the brain and learning, and is part of the BrainWorks series, which aims to educate children about the wonders of neuroscience.
Chudler, executive director of the university’s Center for Sensorimotor Neural Engineering, has been an outreach superstar for many years, organizing events for Brain Awareness Week, running the university’s Neuroscience for Kids website, and producing quality and entertaining videos about the brain. We are thrilled to have partnered on this latest video and hope you’ll get a chance to watch it if you haven’t already.
