Dealing with anxiety? Paid Study looking for Volunteers

At Huberman VR Lab, we are interested in how fear and anxiety is visually created in our brains and body, how we cope with it, and what happens when we cope with it poorly. We are looking to better understand the physiology of anxious emotional states and test the effectiveness of therapeutic interventions to help shift negative states.

If you are currently dealing with anxiety symptoms, we invite you to apply to be a part of our study on anxiety and therapeutic interventions at our new Virtual Reality lab in the Stanford Neurobiology Dept. Participants must be 18 or older, not pregnant, can see a computer screen without glasses (contacts OK) and able to spend approximately 2 hours @Stanford University.

+$40 compensation
