Brain scans to study memory and perception
This study uses brain imaging (fMRI) to learn how memory and perception work in healthy people. Participating involves brain scans while you perform simple tasks, which may help scientists understand how the brain processes information.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You must have normal hearing.
- You must not have any metal implants in your body.

This study looks at how people remember everyday events, like what they did yesterday. You'll do memory tasks, and the results may help improve understanding of memory in daily life.
This study looks at how real-life memories capture your attention. You will use a mobile app and have an MRI scan to see brain activity.
This study looks at how the brain supports remembering your own past experiences. It tests brain mechanisms using brain scanning (MRI) and noninvasive brain stimulation to see how these memory processes work.
This study uses brain scans (MRI) to look at how people perceive social situations. You'd come in for six scanning sessions, and your brain activity would be recorded while you view social cues.
This study looks at how people remember and combine pieces of information. You may be asked to do memory tests online or have a brain scan to see how your brain works during memory tasks.
