To gain insight in the neurobiological mechanisms behind oxytocin effects on human social-emotional behaviour.
The main objective of this study is to examine the effects of resistance type exercise training combined with nutritional support on body composition and muscle characteristics in healthy elderly men and women.
The goal of the current investigation is to test the noradrenergic part of a new model that accounts better for results of pharmacological research. This model states that the cholinergic system underlies disengagement, and that the…
This study aims to determine the effects of acute coffee consumption compared to consumption of decaffeinated coffee on subjective fatigue and vitality ratings, neuropsychological performance and brain activity during working memory and learning…
Primary: To measure the effect of a high protein diet on whole body protein synthesis and -breakdown, as well as on net whole body protein balance and production of urea in children after cardiac surgerySecondary: To measure the effect of a high…
A low frequency of defecation (constipation) is a common complaint affecting a large part of the population. Children, adults and elderly can experience chronic inconvenience because of this complaint. Inulin is not digested in the human…
- To investigate whether olanzapine influences the (psychomimetic) effects of THC, in particular on the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) - To further explore the pharmacologic basis of the THC model - To investigate the effects of…
To evaluate the effects of tDCS on modulating and stydying frontal brain asymmetry.
The goal of the current investigation is to test a new model that accounts better for results of pharmacological research. This model states that the cholinergic system underlies disengagement, and that the noradrenergic system underlies bias. Two…
This proposal centers on hormone-behavior dynamics in paternal caregiving, with the goal of gaining a better understanding of the development of human paternal caregiving. There is limited information on the hormonal basis of caregiving patterns in…
Primary objective: to study, in subjects with elevated blood pressure levels, the effects of an encapsulated grape seed extract high in polyphenols on daytime ambulatory systolic and diastolic blood pressure.Secondary objective: to explore…
The aim of the present double blind cross-over sham controlled study is to study the functional role of the left and right frontal cortex on mood and behaviour in healthy volunteers by applying tDCS to the left and right frontal hemispheres.
We will investigate the neural correlates of sensorimotor synchronization of two individuals in creating music in fMRI with a joint drumming paradigm where the experimenter will drum with the participant in phase (with synchrony) in the experimental…
The primary objective is to examine whether a combined treatment with rivastigmine (cholinesterase inhibitor) and citalopram (selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitor) will improve memory as compared to the treatment with either rivastigmine or…
The primary objective of the current study is to investigate whether administered beta-blocker (propranolol) affects the following components of the EEG: the emotion-induced LPP, the vigilance-related P3, and the error-related Pe. To this end we…
The aim of this project is to test the hypothesis that MDD patients with disturbances in anger/aggression regulation have more serotonin disturbances, as a trait marker for relapse, than MDD patients without disturbances in anger/aggression…
