The ninth annual World Science Festival opened last night with a special evening to honor a titan of neuroscience and curiosity, Dr. Oliver Sacks. Inside a packed house at NYU Skirball Center for the Performing Arts in New York City, the acclaimed neuroscientist, who passed away in 2015, was remembered through a vibrant, visual display full of stories and performances by participants who spoke passionately about Sacks’ impact on their own lives and on the lives of the patients he served.
