The Strangest Place on Earth
Is Inside Your Head.

From the largest brain on Earth to the tiny genius of the octopus, we house the most diverse collection of neural specimens ever assembled for public viewing.

Sperm Whale

Largest Brain on Earth

20 pounds of neural excellence. Despite the massive size, it's the wrinkled cortex that houses our understanding of whale intelligence and echolocation.

  • Weight: 20 lbs (9 kg)
  • Neurons: ~200 billion
  • Specialty: Echolocation processing
Asian Elephant

Temporal Lobe Giants

Massive temporal lobes handle their extraordinary memory and emotional intelligence.

Octopus

Nine Brains, One Vision

Two-thirds of neurons are in the arms. Each arm can "think" independently.

Crow

Bird Brain, Big Ideas

Tool-making, problem-solving, and possibly conscious experience.

Bottlenose Dolphin

Spindle Neuron Masters

Same spindle neurons humans have for emotions and social awareness.

FRONTAL PARIETAL TEMPORAL OCCIPITAL
Human

You Are Here

3 pounds. 86 billion neurons. The only structure known to contemplate its own existence.

  • Weight: 3 lbs (1.4 kg)
  • Neurons: 86 billion
  • Power: 20 watts

The Largest Traveling Collection: Our collection combines physical specimens, high-resolution 3D prints, digital interactives, and live data feeds from the world's leading brain atlases.

365 Exhibits. Every Single Day.

The museum that never stops changing. Our proprietary rotation system means no two visits are ever the same.
