Investigator: Lila Davachi, PhD
Status: Currently Recruiting
The Davachi Lab is currently running research studies to investigate information processing. These behavioral studies may involve looking at neutral images on a computer screen (such as objects, faces, or scenes) and/or listening to neutral auditory sounds (such as natural ambiance or artificial tones), and making judgments about them. In this study,…

Investigator: Elizabeth Sublette, MD, PhD
Status: Closed
This research study uses non-invasive brain imaging called functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS). For fNIRS, a small infrared bulb shines light through the skull, and a special light detector is able to measure oxygen use in the brain. Our goal is to understand oxygen use by brain mitochondria cells in major depression…
