Studies in …
A Pilot Study of Non-invasive Brain Stimulation to Boost the Efficacy of Psychotherapy in a Community Sample of People Who Drink Alcohol
The goal of this small (n=75) proof-of-concept randomized clinical trial is to test the effects of transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) during motivational interviewing (MI) sessions with participants who drink at above the low-risk level. Participants will be randomized to receive either MI with active stimulation, MI with sham stimulation, …
Evaluating the Effectiveness of Implementation Intentions to Strengthen Approach-avoidance Training

This study aims to compare the effectiveness of a classical Approach Bias Modification program, an Approach Bias Modification program integrating a planning strategy …
Cerebellar Involvement in Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD)
The goal of this observational and interventional study is to better understand the involvement of the cerebellum in the brain reward system in persons with alcohol use disorder (AUD). The main questions it aims to answer are: What is the nature of cerebellar input to the ventral tegmental area (VTA) …
