Adaptive Brain Lab

 

This March saw the return of the Cambridge Science Festival 2019. This is an annual, city wide event which showcases the variety of new and exciting science going on across Cambridge. Members of the Adaptive Brain Lab enjoyed hosting a stall in the Department of Psychology for the day on Saturday 16 March.

Visitors enjoyed a range of exhibits including our ever popular variety of visual illusions. New for this year visitors could also challenge their visual system by adapting to a left right reversed world using a pair of prism goggles! These goggles have been used for decades to show how flexible the brain can be even when the world is upside down!

Approximately 800 visitors passed through the building on Saturday, a big thank-you to everyone who took the time to visit us and to our hard working students and researchers!
