Where is Consciousness in Your Brain?

Have you ever wondered how your brain makes you conscious? Join us in an innovative neuroscience study to help us find it out!

We are looking for volunteers to participate in an MEG brain imaging study that explores how we perceive and process different types of visual experiences! During the session, you will complete a simple visual judgement task. You will undergo a brain imaging (MEG and MRI) to track real-time brain activity as you perform the task.

You will be compensated with 20 Euro per hour of participation.

Duration:

4 hours, scheduled at your convenience

Participation requirements:

between 18 and 50 years old
