Enhance Your Teaching & Expand Your Impact

Professor excited about neuroscience outreach

Backyard Brains neuroscience kits are used in undergraduate labs, psychology courses, and biomedical engineering programs at leading universities worldwide. We provide affordable, hands-on neuroscience experiments for students who want to learn neural recording techniques without the cost and complexity of high-end lab equipment.

“Our students engage in open-ended neuroscience experiments, making real discoveries in class.”

FOR

UNIVERSITY OUTREACH & AP SCIENCE

Bring the cutting-edge of brain science into your AP Biology, AP Psychology, or Human Anatomy & Physiology classrooms with real-time neural experiments.

Our affordable, research-grade tools let students record real neuron activity, explore reaction times, and even control movement using bioelectric signals.
