ARE YOU INTERESTED IN HOW THE BRAIN PROCESSES THE TASTE OF SUGAR?

Researchers in the Department of Psychiatry are inviting healthy volunteers take part in a brain imaging study on how the brain processes the taste of soft drinks.

The study takes place at MRC, Cognition and Brain Science Unit, and consists of a 30 min screening session and 2.5h hour testing session. We will make functional MRI scans, while you taste soft drinks. We will also ask you to complete some personality questionnaires.
You will be compensated £60 for your time.
