Last week, the Recreation Therapy team from Penn Medicine Rehabilitation set up a brain injury education table and patient project in the lobby of GSPP’s headquarters at 1800 Lombard Street.

Patients designed the project, as part of a recreation therapy group, for Brain Injury Awareness Month. They learned about the human brain by comparing the brain functions and shapes of different animal brains. Additionally, patients colored animal brains, wrote facts about the brain and studied the evolution of the brain.

We have some artists among us. Nice work! 🎨🧠
