Neurofencing

On July 9 and 10, fencer Supriya Nair will present "Neurofencing: Understand the Inner Workings of Your Brain and Improve Performance."

Surpiya will demonstrate how a 15 min warm-up will transform the state of a fencer’s brain from relaxed to alert and their heart rate from resting to target. When this happens, the fencer's reaction time is improved by 15%.

This objective, data-driven study won the Washington State Science & Engineering Fair in 2021 & 2022. Details about her experiments can be found here. Supriya can be reached at neurofencing@gmail.com.
