我们可能都不太注意自己的大脑。一个非营利组织举行“认识大脑宣传周”活动，希望人们的了解大脑的奥妙。3月11日至17日，世界各地有数百个组织正在举办有关神经科学的活动和讨论。
每天，无论工作还是休闲，你无时无刻不随身带着宇宙中最复杂的物件之一。这就是你的大脑。3月11日至17日，专家们向观众介绍有关神经科学以及大脑如何工作的研究，激发他们的兴趣。
致力于向公众进行神经科学教育的专业组织“国际脑研究联盟”（Dana Alliance for Brain Initiatives）介绍说：“近来神经科学的进步已经显示了征服严重的大脑疾病和紊乱的可能。”复杂、多样的病况，诸如可卡因成瘾、学习障碍、失智症和瘫痪等，可能随着大脑研究方面的发现而一一得到解脱。
国际脑研究联盟的有关人员正在世界各地举办数百场活动。例如在美国国家心理健康研究所（U.S. National Institute of Mental Health），学生们参加实验和游戏，拓展他们对于大脑运行情况的了解。
几年以前在南密西西比大学（University of Southern Mississippi）举办 “认识大脑宣传周”（Brain Awareness Week）活动期间，一个九层楼高的大脑状气球（如上图所示）十分引人注目。

We all probably take our brains for granted. A nonprofit group wants to focus attention on the wonders of the brain during Brain Awareness Week. Hundreds of organizations everywhere in the world are holding events and discussions about neuroscience March 11–17.
Every day, working or playing, you’re carrying around one of the most complex things in the universe. It’s your brain, and experts are making a point March 11–17 to excite the public about neuroscience and the study of how the brain works.
“Recent neuroscience advances have shown the potential for conquering the devastating diseases and disorders of the brain,” according to the Dana Alliance for Brain Initiatives, a professional organization devoted to educating the public about neuroscience. Complex and varied conditions such as cocaine addiction, learning disabilities, dementia and paralysis might all be relieved with discoveries in brain research.
Dana Alliance associates are holding hundreds of events and activities worldwide. For example, at the U.S. National Institute of Mental Health, students are joining in experiments and games to broaden their understanding of how the brain works.
A nine-story-high brain balloon (shown above) stole the show during Brain Awareness Week at the University of Southern Mississippi a few years back.
