ClinConnect Summary
This clinical trial is studying how different parts of a small brain area called the amygdala, which is involved in emotions and smell, work when people experience different smells in various situations. The researchers want to learn more about how these specific parts of the amygdala connect with the nose and affect how we respond to smells.
Anyone over the age of 18 can take part in this study, and people of all genders are welcome. If you join, you can expect to participate in activities or tests related to your sense of smell and how it influences your feelings or behavior in different settings. This study is currently looking for volunteers, especially those between 65 and 74 years old, to help understand these brain functions better.
