Science on Tap: The Wonderful World of Neurodiversity

The next Science on Tap at the Kiggins Theatre, 1011 Main St., Vancouver, is 7 p.m. March 12. Tickets are $15 to $45 at kigginstheatre.com. Writer, university lecturer and former special education teacher Christopher Merideth, and neuroeducation expert Ana Lia Oliva, will use neuroscience, cognitive psychology, linguistics and behavioral science to understand neurodiversity in contrast to a “typical” brain. Both speakers are co-founders of The Neuro-Learning and Language Network, a community of educators who explore brain-based learning in the efforts of promoting equity and social justice in school systems.
