Ever touch a human brain? Thanks to National Brain Awareness Week, March 11th through 17th, you just might have a chance. Volunteer brain experts visit Utah schools next week to educate students about brain safety. The week culminates in a free one-day exhibit on Saturday, March 16th at The Leonardo, located in downtown Salt Lake City. Neuroscientists will give patrons a hands-on opportunity to touch a human brain and learn more about how the brain works. Also, museum-goers will be able to play "brain ball". A game where players compete with one another by controlling a ball with their minds.
