Project description
The goal of the project is to identify brain regions and brain networks related to the psychosocial stress response through means of electroencephalography, a neuroimaging technique. The project evaluates the effects of commonly employed paradigms, uses modern analysis techniques to uncover the spatiotemporal effect of psychosocial stress, and researches the neural effects of various psychosocial stress dimensions. This research is a first step towards specialized non-invasive neurostimulation techniques for stress-related mental disorders.
