Details of Major Brain Awareness Week Events/Activities:
I have been invited to give a popular lecture that would fit the main topic of the BAW2017 “The Brain in the Land of Dreams”. I decided to give a talk entitled “Winter sleep: ground squirrels, cosmonauts and the Belgrade school of physiology”. The topic of my talk was hibernation, hypothermia and their relation with the brain in health and pathophysiology. The talk raised interest and afterwards I gave an interview for the Science TV.
