Take this special opportunity, for Learning & the Brain participants only, to tour the COGNITIVE CONTROL AND DEVELOPMENT LAB at the University of California, Berkeley, where you will see an fMRI brain scan in action. Find out about the Lab and what is being learned from brain scans.

One volunteer from each tour group will be selected for the live scan of his/her own working brain, to be viewed by the group.

Volunteer for the Brain Scan:

If you would like to volunteer for having your brain scanned, please indicate your interest when you call to register.
