Investigate how S1 and the premotor cortex modulate the cortico-spinal excitability as measures by single pulse TMS stimulation of M1.
The main objective of this project is to examine the neural correlates of the motivation to be moral in group contexts. We will address three related issues: how the desire to be seen as moral affects people*s self-views and motivation to display…
The purpose of this research is the studying the neurobiology of being in love and related aspects, such as age, duration of the relation, differences in sex, jealousy and the ending of a relationship.
Do trauma cues trigger more craving in individuals with substance dependency and PTSD in comparison with substance dependent individuals without PTSD? If so, is this effect trauma-specific or are SUD-patients with PTSD more sensitive to general…
Research GoalsUsing cross-sectional data we will test whether control and affective brain regions follow different developmental time courses. The first study will focus on the development of inhibitory control (stimulus-driven and intentional),…
This study concerns a research that is aimed to investigate the prevalence of the metabolic syndrome in a group of patients known with ANCA-associated vaculitis. Hereby we will compare the presence of the metabolic syndrome between an ANCA-…
The main research questions are whether caffeine influences the development of mental fatigue during task performance as reflected in task performance and how caffeine influences the strength of visual selective attention, reflected in…
The key objectives of this study is to examine i) the neural correlates of social interactions with peers, ii) to examine the development of these neural patterns across adolescence, and iii) to focus on their links with psychosocial adjustment.
The global aim of the proposal is to expand our knowledge on the functioning of the fronto-striatal system and the relation to behavioral rigidity, and how these are affected by dopaminergic modulation. The specific aim is to study the effects of…
Social and emotional functioning of hearing impaired children, in the agegroup between 9 and 15 years old.
To test the gene by stress interaction model in humans by investigating how genetic variation alters neural responses to environmental stress.
Primary objective: to determine the effect of intake of one dose of isoflavones, as compared to placebo, for eight weeks on gene-expression in Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMCs) in post-menopausal, equol-producing women.Secondary Objectives…
To assess the effectiveness of an individually selected navigation system on mobility and societal participation of persons who are visually impaired.
To characterize the neural interactions underlying simple perceptual decisions about the target disappearance during motion-induced blindness.
The aims of this study are: 1. To investigate the difference in body composition, fat distribution, energy expenditure, substrate and dietary fat oxidation in Asians and Caucasians. 2. To investigate the effect of overfeeding a high fat diet on…
Objectives are: A. to assess the incidence of ABI in children and youth (up to 25 years of age). B. to describe the consequences of ABI, restrictions in participation and health care needs 2 years post-onset, as well as associated factors.
Study Objective: Primary objectives:1 To determine and confirm whether the Trier Social Stress Test will lead to a stress-induced changes in body temperature increase in male and female volunteersSecondary objectives: 1 To determine whether stress-…
To compare the new IMF with the control IMF.
The aim of this study is to investigate whether the vlPFC is crucially involved in the voluntary control of social emotional behaviour. Presumably, the congruency effect will be larger (i.e. higher reaction times in the incongruent condition) on the…
This pilot study will enable us to assess critical sample points in time to be able to draw a reliable curve of the concentration of various parameters that play a role in iron kinetics. This is essential for the planning of future research into the…
