HS21-1249 Concussion study
This is a single session study looking at salivary biomarkers of concussion.
Current sports related concussion (SRC) severity determination is largely based on subjective assessments such as self-reporting measures and neurocognitive evaluations. Although these methods are considered the gold standard for SRC assessment, they are time consuming and fail to provide an accurate neurobiological conclusion of what is occurring in the brain. A non-invasive biological test could provide an objective measure of SRC severity and thus prevent athletes from returning to sport too quickly. Therefore, the goal of this study is to evaluate the association between salivary microRNA expression and symptom severity in concussed college athletes, thus providing an objective measure of injury severity and reducing the heightened risk of secondary injury in concussed athletes returning to sport too quickly.

HS21-1194 Measuring Brain Activity during Videogame Performance: Task Evaluation
Many studies looking at brain activity have simple tasks out of necessity. You are invited to test a simple game modeled after the well-known Chrome Dino game. You will evaluate and test the game, with opportunities to give your thoughts on where it could go.

HS21-1224 Effects of attention bias modification on attention processing and reward processing
We are interested in what reward does in the brain. In this study, you will be completing two EEG sessions. In both sessions, you will be playing a roulette-gambling game to win as much money as possible. In the second session, you will additionally complete a brief reaction-time task. Upon completion of the second session, you will be compensated with $30.
