- Do I have to have kids to participate?
- No! We also have studies for adults.
- FAQ 03 Can I bring multiple children to an appointment?
- Definitely! When scheduling, our researchers will ask you if you are bringing any other children. We will make sure there’s someone available to watch your other children in our play space which has lots of fun toys. We also may have a study that works for all of your other children. This way, each one of them can participate in one of our studies.

- Yes!
Our research team is fully vaccinated and will be masked during in-person studies. During the study, we must stand very close to participants while putting on EEG and fNIRS caps or while we set up the eye tracker, so our team will also wear face shields during that time. Participants 2 years old and up will be masked, except for limited time periods depending on study requirements. Our lab is cleaned regularly and the fNIRs and EEG caps are sanitized after every participant.
