which focuses on investigating the neurobiological mechanisms underlying dysfunctional eating behaviours through an integrative approach combining psychophysiology, behavioural pharmacology, and psychobiology.
Project Overview
This project aims to explore the modulation of neural circuits involved in appetite control and emotional regulation using advanced psychophysiological techniques (e.g., EEG, HRV), behavioural pharmacology, and neurobiological analysis. Experimental models and interdisciplinary methodologies will be employed to examine the interplay between emotional, neurochemical, and behavioural factors in the development of eating disorders.
