Functional MRI Volunteer Opportunities

We are always looking for volunteers to participate in MR studies. If you are interested, we would love to hear from you.

If you would like to participate as a subject, please first have a look at our patient/subject information sheet, we also ask our volunteers to fill in a safety survey, a NeuroCognitive screening test and, in most cases, a brief neurological exam conducted by a licensed physician. If you have questions, please contact Dr. Mark Cohen (310/980-7453) or Dr. Susan Bookheimer (310/794-6386).

Most studies require volunteers who have no neurological (eg. epilepsy, serious migraines), psychiatric (eg. schizophrenia), or serious medical conditions (eg. diabetes). We respect your privacy regarding these issues, but we do require that for the participation in these studies you meet these criteria.
