Our Research Studies

There are typically several active studies happening in our building. Some studies might be for adults and others for children. Click below to see examples of some of our current and past studies. When you complete the sign up form, our coordinator will contact you to discuss the research process and schedule a first visit. Current studies might be active but may not be seeking someone of your exact profile (age, handedness, etc.) so you may not be immediately enrolled in a study. 

Studies for Children

Project on Affinities and Language (PAL)

Children are invited to participate in an fMRI study to explore how the brain responds to a child’s special interests.
