This show will be presented by the MIT Brain and Cognitive Sciences Department.
You can donate your live brain to science--volunteers from the audience will be able to assist with the on-stage demonstrations to illustrate how your brain works.
After the stage show, there will be many different hands-on activity tables where kids can do their own experiments with various aspects of neuroscience.
There is also half-price, same-day admission to the MIT Museum for Science on Saturday attendees.
All of our Science on Saturday events on the MIT campus are free and open to all elementary, middle, and high school students, as well as their parents and teachers.
They are sponsored by the MIT Museum and the Akamai Foundation.
