> The Neuroplasticity and Development Lab invites participants to take part in research studies at the 2019 NFB convention in Las Vegas. The studies involve listening to stories and answering questions. The goal of this research is to better understand how visual and non-visual experiences contribute to cognition.

Each study takes around 2 hours, and participants are compensated $30 per hour for taking part in each study. To qualify, participants must be totally blind from birth and between 18 and 50 years of age with no cognitive or neurological disabilities. To see if you qualify, please call or email to set up a screening interview. To find out if you qualify, please contact us by either calling (410) 870-9895 or emailing plasticity.lab2 at gmail.com<mailto:plasticity.lab2 at gmail.com>.
