Volunteer studies

• PoChoSpike

  A Potato or a Chocolate Spiker?

  David Gómez Varela, head of the Center of Excellence for Metaproteomics, nutritionist Karl-Heinz Wagner and pharmacologist Manuela Schmidt investigate how the effect of food on an individual’s blood sugar levels might be predicted.

• The BARVANS Study

  The BARVANS study investigates how non-invasive vagal nerve stimulation (VN) impacts healthy adults' balance, neurological function, and sensory responses. The vagus nerve plays a critical role in regulating the autonomic nervous system. Through this study, we hope to offer new therapeutic approaches to improve quality of life, especially in preventing falls and managing heart-related issues and pain.
