GETTING STARTED
The Staglin Center for Cognitive Neuroscience offers many opportunities to participate it cutting edge research studies. Click on the button below to learn more about participating in research and browse on-going or upcoming studies to connect with researchers.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Study participants may be asked to undergo an MRI, EEG, Ultrasound, or a combination of the three, as well as various screening and behavioral questionnaires. Your study team will provide all necessary information for you.
HOW TO PREPARE
If undergoing an MRI study, please make sure you are fully transparent with your study team about your medical history. Any and all implants or devices must be disclosed to research staff so that more in-depth screening can take place. This is for YOUR safety! If you have an implant, you may be asked to provide copies of your medical history or communications with your physician or surgeon.
