Brain: The Inside Story

Ontario Brain Institute (OBI) is the exclusive Knowledge Sponsor of the Brain: The Inside Story exhibition that is being brought to the Canadian Museum of Nature (CMN) in Ottawa; a travelling exhibition from the American Museum of Natural History. 

This exhibition explores the most complex organ in the human body; how it has evolved, its inner workings and how it makes us human. Through dynamic exhibits, hands-on visual, auditory and digital components, visitors will gain a new perspective into their own cerebrum.
