In discussion will be Dr. Bray's expansive scope of research with our canine companions. She has placed dogs of all ages within cognitive games to better understand how their brains work over time, and has come to find through such research that puppies are indeed genetically inclined to already respond to human communications. She has also worked through the categories of detection, guide, and service dogs to examine how we may better facilitate the relationships we form with man's best friend. 

Findings from these areas of study and more will be ready for your viewing pleasure August 9, 2024.
