This is the presentation of the first neuroscience event hosted by Ahmed Eljack in November 2016 at Alneelain University. The event discussed the applications and future of neuroscience. *Eljack's Neuroscience Events are events hosted by Ahmed Eljack in various Sudanese universities to discussed different topics in the ever-growing field of neuroscience.

1. Eljack’s
Neuroscience Event
Our very first event!
(Alneelain University)

3. Looks like
this kid is
trying to
memorize
the
somatosens
ory
pathways!

4. 90% of the
Sudanese
medical
students hate
neuroscience

5. STATING
THE
OBVIOUS!

7. In our Facebook group you mentioned:
1. Insufficient time for teaching.
2. The difficulty of the subject.
3. Improper teaching.
4. The integration of neuroscience with
anatomy and physiology instead of
separation of the subject.
5. No good books available (seriously!).
