Propofol, Anesthesia
Investigating Near-Threshold Perception During Anesthetic Sedation
The researchers expect to gain a deeper understanding of mental function during different levels of anesthesia. Propofol is FDA approved for use in patients undergoing an anesthetic for medical treatment but is not approved for…

Phobias
The Effect of Intravenous Anesthetics on Fear Learning and Memory
People often develop fearful responses to things, but have no conscious control over the fear. This is a basic form of unconscious memory, called "fear conditioning." Intravenous anesthetic drugs have remarkable effects on…
