B3: Linking memories under stress

Project B3 will examine how and through which mechanisms acute stress may affect the linking of overlapping events. For this purpose, we will employ an associative inference task, in combination with an established experimental stress induction, fMRI and multivarite pattern classification. This project will be conducted in close collaboration with colleagues from the Donders Insitute of Brain, Cognition and Behaviour (Nijmegen, The Netherlands) and the University of Texas at Austin.
