PLANES (Preschool Language and Neural Engagement Study) is a study for 3- and 4-year-old children that investigates how children’s early experiences influence their learning and brain development. Participation involves fun, kid-friendly brain imaging sessions at our lab on the UMD College Park campus and an easy home audio recording. Participants will earn up to $230 for completing the study, your child will get a picture of their brain to take home, and they will get to learn about neuroscience!
