MindCORE Outreach Library
Welcome to the MindCORE Outreach Library! We maintain a collection of exhibits, demonstrations, and educational tools to be used for scientific outreach. Our pieces are all designed, created, or verified by researchers here at the University of Pennsylvania and are open to use by anyone in the Philadelphia community.
If you would like to check out a piece from our library, please email your request to pennmindcore@sas.upenn.edu at least one week before you need it.
ADD TO OUR COLLECTION: We are currently looking to grow our library! If you have any item or exhibit you would like to contribute, please email pennmindcore@sas.upenn.edu
