Clinical trials

The behavioral within-subject cross-over design study "CoVa" aims to investigate the effect of a short-term full-body cold-water immersion vs. warm-water immersion control on value-based choice, psychological well-being, and peripheral physiology.

The ProlEx-Context study aims to investigate how a slow-paced breathing technique with prolonged exhalation affects decision-making in the context of acute social stress.

The objective of this study is to investigate the impact of hypocaloric time-restricted eating (TRE) at different day times (early versus late TRE) on glucose metabolism and other cardiometabolic parameters in individuals with overweight and with normal, or impaired glucose metabolism (prediabetes and type 2 diabetes). In addition, the study aims to elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying these effects.

The overall aim is to identify the dietary pattern for prevention and treatment of type 2 diabetes. The specific aim of this pilot project is to compare effects of two diets with different diurnal distribution of carbohydrates and protein on the glucose metabolism in subjects with prediabetes and type 2 diabetes and its effects on inflammatory status.

The study will investigate how the expectation of food availability impacts the response to food cues, mood, interoceptive awareness, and consumption of food intake in healthy, naturally cycling women.

The study will examine the effect of exogenous ketone ester on behavior and metabolism using Virtual Reality and computerizes behavioral tasks.

This study aims to investigate how time-restricted eating (TRE), more specifically TRE at different times (early vs late in the day), influences brain activity, behavior, decision-making, food intake, physical activity, the gut microbiome and metabolic processes. The study intervention procedure is a replication of that described in Peters et al. (2021).
