About CUNO
CUNO grew out of a small group of Columbia Graduate students who began visiting local New York City classrooms in 2005, teaching short workshops about the brain in the spirit of Brain Awareness Week. We have greatly expanded since, and we are always looking for new volunteers and new classes to visit, so please contact us for more information or if you would like to help out.
