Dopaminergic Function and Food Reward
Dopaminergic Function and Food Reward
The broad aim of the study is to obtain a better understanding of alterations in mesolimbic
 reward pathways in adiposity based on the hypothesis of a hypofunctioning reward system in
 obesity.

 This will be achieved by integrating a functional neuroimaging (fMRI) with behavioral reward
 tasks and the modulation of the dopamine level by dopamine depletion.
