Visitors will be conducted on a virtual journey to discover human brain through evocative sensory pathways . The route is developed in six sections with the use of installations, games and movies aimed at revealing the many functions of the main human organ: the role of memory to diseases, from the spaces of reasoning to emotions.[charme-gallery]
