Study Summary
Objective: The goal of this protocol is to improve understanding scale-free brain activity and conscious vs. unconscious processing by performing small behavioral, electrophysiological, neuroimaging and brain stimulation pilot substudies. This research is expected to help develop techniques and hypotheses for future research on these topics. We will conduct: * Pilot Substudy: Pilot substudies are exploratory in nature, in order to develop enough information to generate a hypothesis. The criterion for transition to a new full protocol will be acquisition of sufficient information to generate a power analysis. There are no enrollment limitations for pilot substudies. * Hypothesis-Testing Substudy is defined as a study with a specific hypothesis to be tested that can be completed with a few healthy volunteers or patients. Hypothesis-testing substudies will undergo statistical and PIRC reviews after 6 subjects (if there is one group) or after 12 (6 per arm) if two groups are studied before additional subjects are recruited. In the event of subject dropout or unsuccessful recording, replacement will be recruited. Together, the P.I. and PIRC will decide whether to continue the hypothesis substudy with more subjects without an amendment or whether an amendment or new protocol would be necessary. A memo requesting a review of hypothesis-testing substudies for possible additional enrollment will be sent to PIRC and the statistical reviewer. The memo will be forwarded to the CNS IRB. * Technical development of new experimental paradigms and data analysis methods. This protocol includes only non-invasive techniques with minimal risk (MRI, EEG, MEG, EMG, tDCS). Study Population: We plan to recruit up to 120 healthy volunteers aged 18-65. Design: We will design small projects that are pertinent to the theme of scale-free brain activity and conscious/unconscious processing. We will investigate healthy volunteers in the resting state or while they perform simple motor or s
