See a Cow Eye Close Up!
Join us at the Neuroscience Fair! Explore how we see and how our brains sometimes get fooled! This station features a real cow eye dissection alongside mind-bending visual illusions. Participants can examine preserved eyes, handle a foam model to identify key structures, and watch a blind spot demo that reveals where your vision literally disappears. Then, shift gears to optical illusions that challenge your perception.
