The Neurosience Laboratories are located on the -1 floor of the Mercè Rodoreda building 24 on UPF's Ciutadella Campus (how to get there). They are distributed in 15 rooms of different sizes, a reception area and a small workshop that together occupy about 120m2:

 

All the rooms have a control area where the researcher accompanies the participant at all times and, depending on the room’s characteristics, are used for different types of studies:

  • Rooms A, B, C and D, which have electromagnetic isolation (Faraday cage), are mainly used for electroencephalographic recordings.
  • Rooms O, N, M and L, larger rooms, are used for studies with children and babies.
  • The rest of the rooms are used for behavioral studies with adults.

All rooms have:

  • Acoustic insulation of about 55dB.
  • Rubber flooring that favors noise damping.
  • Air conditioning independent from the rest of the building which we control and is installed to minimize the background noise.
  • Adjustable LED lighting, and
  • Isolated communication network that allows communication between machines without external influence.
