The Effects of Smells on Moods and Neural Networks

Our primary objective will be to test how brain activity is changed by different types of smells, to get a better understanding on how scents affect resting states and feelings, and (subsequently) their impact on mood and cognition. We also aim to study in turn how induced moods manage to affect the processing of scents, and whether these changes are long term either behaviourally or neurally, or just transient short term changes.
