Participant Opportunities
The Balas Lab is currently recruiting children between the ages of 3 and 6 years of age to visit the lab and take part in a wide range of experiments. Kids who visit the lab get to play computer games that help us understand how children recognize faces and objects, or even wear an EEG net so we can see how your brain works while you look at pictures!
Our lab mascot, Norman P. Bear, accompanies kids during their visit to help explain how things work and why our lab is interested in the things that we study. At the end of each visit, kids get to fill up their Balas Lab passport with stamps for each game they played, and children also get to pick a small book or toy to take home with them.
