Be part of an experiment |
 |
Are you a risk taker? Every Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Sunday throughout April you can be part of a real research experiment at the Museum exploring risk. Play a computer game to help researchers from the Institute of Cognitive Neuroscience at University College of London discover why some age groups are more likely to take risks than others. |
