NeuroBRITE is an outreach program run by the Rotman Research Institute at Baycrest, with the aim of introducing final year high school students to cognitive neuroscience and scientific computing. Students will design, conduct, and analyze EEG-based psychological experiments on the theme of cognitive ageing.

The aim of this brainhack project is to develop two parts of the NeuroBRITE curriculum:

1. Implementation + testing of several cog psych experimental paradigms in the areas of memory, executive function, and perception for use with muse EEG.

2. Development of didactic introductory+intermediate material for students and teachers.

For 1), stimulus presentation and experiment control will be psychopy-based, building off the excellent examples in muse-lsl python library. Off-line data analyses shall be implemented using a combination of Python and R tools.
