Peak alpha frequency (PAF)
Timeframe: We will acquire 2-10 min of baseline EEG with open eyes and 2-10 min of EEG with closed eyes. This measurement will occur at each of the four in-person visit approximately every 3 weeks.
Objective incremental Celsius changes in heat-pain tolerance
Timeframe: The heat incremental changes range from 30 sec to 2 min tolerance. This measurement will occur at each of the four in-person visit approximately every 3 weeks.
