Our Mission

The mission of the Laboratory for Brain and Education (LABBE) is to promote neuroscience research and translate neuroscience research findings into educational theories and practices. We disseminate the latest neuroscience findings to teachers, schools, NGOs and policy makers for them to make more informed decisions in education.

What is neuroscience?

Neuroscience is an interdisciplinary science that studies the biological mechanisms underlying behaviors. Education-related neuroscience research has been growing rapidly in recent years. Major research institutes in the world have been conducting various forms of brain research project to understand the brain mechanisms involved in learning and to develop more effective educational practices informed by neuroscience knowledge.

What does the LABBE do?

The LABBE organizes regular research seminars and technical training workshops for colleagues and students who are interested in integrating neuroscience methods into their existing research. In addition, the LABBE organizes public lectures that aim to disseminate research findings to the community and provide teachers, parents, schools and policy makers the crucial neuroscience knowledge to make more informed decisions.
