Influence of Medication on Functional Connectivity

This study will assess the effects of acute low-dose opioid administration on functional neuroimaging measures in healthy individuals (N=40, 20 male, 20 female). The objective of this research is to develop an understanding of factors that may influence individual variability on resting state functional connectivity in response to low-dose opioid administration with the longer term aim of understanding addictions vulnerability. Specifically, the proposed pilot research will explore the effects of single dose of oxycodone (15mg) on resting state functional connectivity and other common neuroimaging measures (e.g., diffusion MRI, structural MRI).
