About the study. We are using brain imaging to study attention and cognitive control in adults.

 

Who can participate?  Adults aged 18 or above, with normal (corrected) vision, who does not have a diagnosed developmental condition or history of brain injury. Some studies may require you to be right handed or to have English as a first language: we will contact you about studies that we believe you are eligible for.

​

What's involved? We use magnetoencephalography (MEG), electroencephalography (EEG), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and/or transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) to measure brain activity as adults perform neuropsychological or cognitive tasks.

​

Duration? Between 1 and 3 hrs (varies between studies).

 

Payment. Participants will be reimbursed for their time and travel expenses. You will be paid at least £12 per hour for EEG/MEG/fMRI/TMS studies (£10/hour for purely behavioural testing), plus a contribution of £2.50 - £3 towards your travel expenses. For studies involving brain imaging, we will also give you a picture of your brain!
