Short summary of the project:
Supported by the National Research, Development and Innovation Office and as a part of the Hungarian Brain Research Program 2.0. the research group is investigating the neural response (brain activity) and genetics of people with migraine, tension headache and in healthy control subjects to identify biomarkers of migraine and new drug targets.

The project based on the results of the previous MTA-SE-NAP B Genetic Brain Imaging Migraine Research Group.
