Studying brain blood flow during thinking
This study looks at how blood flow in the brain changes while you are thinking. You will do tasks while having brain scans to help researchers understand normal brain activity.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be a healthy adult aged 18 to 65.
- Have at least a high school education and be able to read and write English.
- Have no major medical, neurological, or psychiatric conditions, no serious head injury, and no learning disability.
- Have no drug or alcohol abuse or dependence in the past 3 months (nicotine is okay).
- Not be taking medications or supplements that could affect brain function.
- Be able to lie flat on your back for up to 3 hours (for the MRI scan).

This research study tests new ways to take detailed pictures of your brain using MRI (a safe imaging machine). You'll help researchers develop better imaging methods by lying still in the scanner for up to 2 hours.
This study recruits healthy adults to help researchers run mental health and brain-related experiments. It may help future studies by improving how they measure brain function and behavior.
This study uses MRI brain scans to understand how emotions affect our actions. It may help researchers learn more about how the brain works in healthy people.
This study tests how people learn from choices and make decisions using computer tasks. Some participants also complete brain scans (MRI) to see how the brain activity matches behavior.
This study looks at how your brain responds when you look for information. You will have an MRI scan while doing simple tasks, which may help researchers understand how the brain works.
This study uses MRI scans to check and improve how medical teams measure brain changes. If you’re eligible, you’ll complete MRI safety screening and imaging while the team studies which scan measurements work best.
