Brain activity study for healthy adults
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study looks at how people seek information by measuring brain activity with an MRI scan. You might join if you are generally healthy and want to help researchers understand how the brain works.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You have good vision (20/40 or better, with or without glasses or contacts).
- You are in good overall health.
- You have no history of head injury or illness that affects the brain or nervous system.
- You are not taking medications that affect blood flow or alertness.
- You can avoid smoking or coffee for 30 minutes before testing.

This study tests whether a special MRI technique can help people learn to control brain areas linked to motivation. It may lead to better treatments for motivational problems.
This study looks at how your brain creates motivation by using brain scans and sometimes gentle stimulation. It is for healthy people who want to help researchers understand normal brain function.
This study looks at how your brain works when you focus your eyes and think hard. It uses an MRI and gentle brain stimulation (like a small magnetic pulse) to see how your brain cells act together.
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 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 uses brain stimulation and brain imaging (MRI) along with vision tests to understand how the brain supports seeing. You might be eligible if you are a healthy adult and can safely complete MRI and stimulation tasks.
