Once you arrive in Science 4 our staff members will walk you though the event opportunities. We cannot wait to meet you!
Past and current research projects will be presented by member of each research groups. There will be some hands-on activities for all ages on the following topics
We aim to understand how the sum of lifetime exposures to nongenetic drivers of health impacts brain functioning and cognition across the adult lifespan, focusing on the potential pathways of perceived stress, the gut microbiome, epigenetics, and structural determinants of health.
Our work seeks to understand how you remember, what you remember, and how aging affects your memory. The facets of memory we look at include its relationship with attention, how it binds different information together, and how it is altered by age, pathology, and injury.
Our work focuses on understanding how people communicate, including how they understand speech, learn new languages, and how hearing affects these abilities. We use cognitive and neuroscience methods to investigate how auditory functions interact with cognitive abilities like attention, memory, and learning to support speech communication.
Get to know the general principles of how a Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) machine works. This technique is utilized by multiple research groups to advance our understanding on how the brain and its activity change across the lifespan. Hop on an MRI simulator for an immersive experience.
Our work focuses on how vision develops in childhood and on the influence of digital exposure on visual development. We investigate the perceptual and attention processes that influence the formation of visual memories in addition to exploring the structure and content of visual representations. We also examine the influence of digital media exposure on visual development.
Our research team is interested in learning how brain structure and function develop over the lifespan. We use developmental cognitive neuroscience methods to investigate the development of face processing abilities and their interactions with other cognitive domains. Researches in the Early NeuroCognitive Development team are working to better understand how infants learn from others and develop social perception and communication skills.
