Summary

This within-subject experiment uses one night of acute sleep restriction (4h) vs normal sleep (8h) to study state-dependent changes in olfactory processing. Odor-evoked blood oxygen level dependent (BOLD) responses will be measured in olfactory brain regions using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). Food intake will be measured at a buffet.
