Following a subsequent research meeting with Prof. Arno Villringer, Director of the Department of Neurology, It was decided to launch a brain imaging study of maladaptive daydreaming to be led by Samyogita Hardikar, a post-doctoral fellow at the Max Planck Institute. We will recruiting soon participants who would be interested in being brain scanned while engaging in immersive daydreaming.
