# Event Details - **Event Name**: Brain Explorers: The Memory Expedition - A Neuroscience Summer Camp - **Event Start and End Date**: Mon, 29 Jun, 2026 at 09:00 am – Mon, 03 Aug, 2026 at 04:00 pm - **Event Description**: Solve brain mysteries in a hands-on neuroscience summer camp. Investigate memory, diagnose patients, and think like a real scientist.About this EventCamp BioCompass: The Memory ExpeditionA Week-Long Neuroscience Camp (Grades 4–8)A limited number of Financial Aid Awards are available - details below.What if your child didn’t just learn about the brain — but had to use science to diagnose it?In this immersive, week-long experience, students become part of a neuroscience investigation team tasked with solving a set of complex memory-related brain cases. Working in small groups, campers are assigned a “patient” and must determine what has gone wrong - and how it might be repaired.How It WorksOver five days, students take on the roles of different types of neuroscientists, using a range of hands-on investigations to build their case:Examine brain structure and identify lesionsAnalyze behavioral data to uncover memory deficitsStudy tissue samples and cellular changesReconstruct neural circuits and test how signals flowEach day adds new evidence to their case file, bringing them closer to a final diagnosis.The MissionBy the end of the week, each team will:Identify the affected memory systemDetermine which brain regions are involvedExplain the underlying biological causePresent a final diagnosis and proposed repair strategyWhy This Is DifferentThis is not a typical science camp.Students don’t just follow instructions — they:Work through multi-step scientific problemsInterpret data and connect ideas across disciplinesCollaborate, debate, and refine their thinkingExperience how real scientists investigate the brainThe program is designed to be both intellectually engaging and highly interactive, blending experiments, challenges, and creative problem-solving throughout the week.Who Is This For?Ideal for students who:Enjoy problem-solving, puzzles, and hands-on activitiesAre interested in science, medicine, or how the brain worksAre looking for a more engaging and in-depth experience than traditional STEM campsNo prior experience required — just curiosity and willingness to think.Built by Real ScientistsBioCompass Kids is created and taught by PhD neuroscientists who study brain function and disease.We bring real science into an accessible, hands-on experience - without simplifying away the thinking.Program Details? Monday–Friday⏰ 9:00 AM – 4:00 PM? Small groups (3–4 students per team)? Limited capacity to ensure a high-quality experienceFinancial Aid Support (Limited Availability)[Currently Accepting Applications]We believe every child should have the opportunity to explore neuroscience in an engaging, hands-on environment.To support this, we offer a limited number of Financial Aid Awards, designed to make participation possible for families across a range of financial circumstances.Eligibility is informed by San Mateo County cost-of-living benchmarks and household size.Applications are reviewed on a rolling weekly basis (every Monday)Awards are limited and not guaranteedIn periods of high demand, some awards may be determined by lotteryIf you would like to apply, please complete the form below:https://forms.gle/JBhmmimJNfn513M99Limited SpotsEnrollment is intentionally capped to maintain a highly interactive, team-based environment. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/san-mateo/brain-explorers-the-memory-expedition-a-neuroscience-summer-camp/100001987448813903 - **Event Categories**: kids, trips-adventures, summer-camps, science-fair, nonprofit - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 - **Event Highlights**: - Duration: 7 hours - Location: Studio Anthurium, Blue Room - Languages: English ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 75, max: 600, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: San Mateo - **state**: CA - **country**: United States - **location**: Studio Anthurium, Blue Room - **lat**: 37.5287673 - **long**: -122.2893573 - **full address**: Studio Anthurium, Blue Room, 55 43rd Avenue, San Mateo, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Brain Explorers: The Memory Expedition - A Neuroscience Summer Camp - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events1/banners/689d611ae0b4b24693863203026b6d65aa602b9f946518b9ccc2beed67e8ee7c-rimg-w1200-h675-dc6aa9a4-gmir.jpg?v=1776654439 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Brain Explorers: The Memory Expedition - A Neuroscience Summer Camp being held? - **A:** Brain Explorers: The Memory Expedition - A Neuroscience Summer Camp takes place on Mon, 29 Jun, 2026 at 09:00 am to Mon, 03 Aug, 2026 at 04:00 pm at Studio Anthurium, Blue Room, 55 43rd Avenue, San Mateo, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing Brain Explorers: The Memory Expedition - A Neuroscience Summer Camp? - **A:** Brain Explorers: The Memory Expedition - A Neuroscience Summer Camp is organized by BioCompass Kids. ## Structured Data (JSON-LD) ```json [ { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Event", "name": "Brain Explorers: The Memory Expedition - A Neuroscience Summer Camp", "image": "https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events1/banners/689d611ae0b4b24693863203026b6d65aa602b9f946518b9ccc2beed67e8ee7c-rimg-w1200-h675-dc6aa9a4-gmir.jpg?v=1776654439", "startDate": "2026-06-29", "endDate": "2026-08-03", "url": "https://allevents.in/san-mateo/brain-explorers-the-memory-expedition-a-neuroscience-summer-camp/100001987448813903", "location": { "@type": "Place", "name": "Studio Anthurium, Blue Room", "address": { "@type": "PostalAddress", "streetAddress": "55 43rd Avenue", "postalCode": "94403", "addressLocality": "San Mateo", "addressRegion": "CA", "addressCountry": "US" }, "geo": { "@type": "GeoCoordinates", "latitude": "37.5287673", "longitude": "-122.2893573" } }, "eventAttendanceMode": "https://schema.org/OfflineEventAttendanceMode", "description": "Solve brain mysteries in a hands-on neuroscience summer camp.
