The Effects of Smoking Withdrawal On Resting State Functional Connectivity

Withdrawn before enrolling · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Smoking

In brief

The purpose of this study is to see how the brain differs between smoking regularly and after not smoking for 24 hours. The investigators will be using an MRI machine to get the information from adult smokers and non-smokers while they lie in the scanner with their eyes closed. Smokers will be scanned when they have not smoked for 24 hrs and shortly after smoking. It is our hypothesis that brain activity will be altered after not smoking for 24 hours.
