The Neuroplasticity and Development Lab in the Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences at Johns Hopkins University is seeking participants for psychology research studies. The goal of this research is to better understand how visual and non-visual experiences contribute to changes in the brain .

Participating in this research study involves having an MRI, listening to stories and sounds, and answering questions.  Each study lasts approximately 3 hours.  Participants are compensated $30 per hour for their time and are reimbursed for transportation expenses to the testing site at Johns Hopkins in Baltimore.
