Gorilla Presents

A webinar series all about behav­iour­al science online

Every month we will be invit­ing experts to discuss research on the cutting edge of online behav­iour­al science.

If there’s a topic you’d like us to discuss you can tweet us using the hashtag #GorillaPresents.

Join us on Thurs­day the 16th of May at 4pm BST to see research studies built using Game Builder, and learn how to set up your own. We’ll be hearing from Drew McLaugh­lin, one of our 2023 Gorilla Grant winners who’s set up a working memory task in Game Builder.
