 Project Summary  Kevin S. LaBar, Ph.D. (Young Investigator 2000) of Duke University, is examining how emotional stimuli are linked to long-term memory processes in the human brain. Healthy subjects will undergo functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) in combination with event-related potential (ERP) recordings, during performance of memory tasks for stimuli that vary in their emotional content. The imaging results will identify which brain regions are specialized for remembering emotional events, while the ERP results will identify which brain regions become engaged over time. This research may lead to new insights on the relationship between memory and emotion, with the potential for a better understanding of depression and traumatic memory disorders. Program Area: MOOD DISORDERS\Depression (Unipolar) |
