Another film looks deeper into hallucination and even makes the audience have an auditory hallucination as they watch and listen to a film.
During your journey, you’ll find touchable 3D printed brains of animals, fun mini experiments to trick your brain and fun facts about the brain on the ‘Brain Cards’.
Hello Brain! is a fascinating pocket exhibition covering a handful of research areas in an easy-to-understand and interesting way.
