Learn more about the vagus nerve – one of the body's most important neural pathways, which connects the brain to the heart, lungs, and stomach. But what happens if you stimulate this nerve directly? Can it affect brain function?

As part of the Public University's knowledge festival Hearts & Minds, Dokk1's science communicator Matilda Tjellden invites you to explore this fascinating topic through an interactive workshop. Together with other festival guests, she has designed a large model of the vagus nerve, where you can draw, write, and interact with the three-dimensional artwork.

The workshop takes place Saturday and Sunday on September 24 and 25. Registration is required.
