Curious about the impact of chess on your brain? This research tries to do just that! In order to proceed, they are actively looking for participants with various levels of chess skills:
Our study consists of an online task (+- 40 minutes) and a scanning session (<2h) which takes place in an fMRI scanner at UZ Gasthuisberg Leuven, during which the participants complete another task.
Both tasks are chess-related, we ask you to evaluate certain chessboard positions. Upon completion of the experiment, participants receive € 70, and we also provide the anatomical scan of your brain to you!
Contact Andrea Ivan Costantino through andreaivan.costantino@kuleuven.be. There is no specific end-date, but we are aiming to finalize it in March. So it would be great if they could contact us in the next ~2 weeks so we can schedule sessions.

Benieuwd hoe mijn brein er uit zal zien op de scan.
