In the Brain in Action lab at the University of Lethbridge, researchers like Dr. Claudia Gonzalez study how the brain processes and integrates sensory and motor information. Now, they want people like you to join them and take part in a fun and engaging study.

Daniela Aguilar Ramirez, a PhD student studying under Gonzalez, is researching sex differences in spatial cognition, or how we navigate the environment and locate objects. Males generally outperform females in spatial tasks, like those requiring mental object rotation. However, females are generally better at some tasks, such as object location.
