Research Study on Child Memory Development for Ages 5-17
Principal Investigator: Xiaoqian Chai, PhD (IRB00151734, Approved January 31, 2018)
Do you, your friends, or family members have children ages 5-17? Are you interested in how children develop their memory and cognitive abilities? – If yes, please join us!
Your child will play fun computer games with us as we use a neuroimaging tool, fMRI to record brain activity. fMRI is essentially a “brain camera” that is safe for children.
Our participants have thoroughly enjoyed their experiences, playing the games, and looking at the pictures of their own brain, in addition to the cool brain pictures, several prizes, the merits of being a ‘young scientist’ and much unconditional praise. You will also receive $25 per hour for the MRI session and $15 per hour for the out-of-scanner behavioral testing session for your time. Transportation costs will be reimbursed.
INTERESTED? Please e-mail Dr. Xiaoqian Chai at ChaiLab@jhu.edu, or call us at 410-502-2529.
Please forward this e-mail to your friends and family who might be interested in participating!
Sincerely,
