This study aims to understand how a hormone called oxytocin, delivered via a nasal spray, changes how the brain processes emotions. Researchers will study 120 healthy men using brain scans and questionnaires to see if the hormone works by entering the brain directly or through th…

This study is testing a new brain training method to help people reduce anxiety about future events. Healthy volunteers will try to learn to control a specific brain area using real-time feedback from an MRI scanner. The goal is to see if this training can help people feel less w…

This study aims to understand how oxytocin, a hormone, influences a person's ability to control their attention. Researchers will give healthy adult men oxytocin or a placebo as a mouth spray and measure their focus using eye-tracking tests. The goal is to gather basic knowledge …

This study aims to understand if a person's natural ability to focus and control their thoughts can predict how well they learn to regulate specific brain activity using real-time MRI feedback. Researchers will enroll 40 healthy volunteers to complete mental tasks and undergo bra…

This study explores how what we believe can change our experience of 'empathic pain'—the discomfort we feel when seeing someone else in pain. Researchers will give 120 healthy adults either a real nasal spray, a fake (placebo) spray, or no spray, but tell everyone they are gettin…

This study aims to understand if a nasal spray containing oxytocin changes how healthy people react to threats. Participants will play a virtual game where they must escape from a predator while researchers measure their brain activity, skin sweat, and decisions. The goal is to l…

This study is investigating whether a gentle, non-invasive electrical stimulation on the outer ear (called taVNS) can help reduce feelings of anxiety and improve how people regulate their emotions. Researchers are recruiting 140 healthy volunteers to receive either the real stimu…

This study aims to understand how two different types of real-time brain scan feedback affect a specific brain area linked to feelings and empathy. Researchers will recruit 90 healthy volunteers to compare continuous feedback with intermittent feedback. The goal is to see which m…
