BELLINGHAM - Faculty from WWU's Behavioral Neuroscience Program and Biology and Psychology departments will gather for a monthly neighborhood round-table discussion, "Neuroscience on Tap: Bring Your Own Brain (BYOB)" from 7 to 8:30 p.m. Monday, July 6, at The Copper Hog restaurant at 1327 N. State St. in Bellingham.

"New Cells in Old Brains...But You Gotta Work for Them!" is this month's topic, which will be hosted by Mike Mana, an associate professor in Western's Psychology Department.

This will be the group's last discussion until the fall. Neuroscience on Tap events will pick up again on Oct. 5. At each meeting, a faculty member will lead the discussion of a specific topic, from mental illness to food addiction to brain injury.
