Journey through your brain: Final post

Over the last few months, we have taken a journey through our brains, talking about topics such as attention, movement, and sleep. We hope you have enjoyed this blog series and learned something new about our most complex organ!

We would like to thank UCD Careers Network for providing SPARC funding for this ongoing project. You can read more about the SPARC initiative here!

If you would like to learn even more about the brain, we have some downloadable interactive activities available on our website here and have listed a few online resources below. Public engagement events and activities are really important to us here in our lab, so keep an eye on our ‘Recent Activities’ tab and social media for information on any upcoming events!

For more information on the research we carry out at the UCD Neuropsychology Lab check out our ‘Current Projects’ tab. This is where you can find out what projects we’re running and how you can take part!
