Zapping the brain to understand why we eat

NCT ID NCT06105164

Summary

This study aims to understand how a specific brain circuit influences feelings of fullness and food cravings. Researchers will use a safe, non-invasive magnetic stimulation technique on the brains of 150 healthy adults while they view food images. The goal is to learn how brain activity changes when people are full versus hungry, which could inform future approaches to managing eating behaviors.
