Brain Exhibit Invites Touch, Squeeze By Constance Burr
Do you know your way around your brain? Kids and adults can
take a virtual walk through cerebral megamodels in "Brain: The
World Inside Your Head," an exhibit at the Smithsonian Institution's
Arts and Industries Bldg. You are invited to touch, squeeze, pull,
stand on, even walk all over the exhibit, which interprets the latest
research on the body's center of thought, emotion, memory and
action.
