Using Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging to Characterize Cigarette Smoking in Neurocognitive Domains
The purpose of this study is to characterize the structural and functional brain circuitry of smokers in order to gain a better understanding of the neuroscience underlying nicotine addiction. Specifically, we use neuroimaging to characterize smokers in 3 domains; cue reactivity, sustained attention, and inhibitory control; as well as asses resting brain function.
