Who can participate?  Adults aged 18 - 40, 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), transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) and/or computer tasks to measure brain activity as you listen to stories or perform cognitive tasks.

When? Different time slots are provided at your convenience.

 

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

 

Payment. You will be paid at least £12 per hour for EEG/MEG/fMRI/TMS studies (£10/hour for purely behavioural testing), plus  £4 towards your travel expenses. For studies involving brain imaging, we will also give you a picture of your brain!
