Prospective Studies of the Pathogenesis of Schizophrenia (Center Title) Early Brain Development in High Risk Children (Project Title) Early Brain Development in One and Two Year Olds (Associated Grant Title)
The purpose of this study is to use structural and functional magnetic resonance imaging
(MRI) to study children at high risk for schizophrenia. It is hypothesized that children at
high risk for schizophrenia will have abnormalities of brain development, especially of the
cerebral cortex. The study will also describe normal brain development in children from birth
to age 6 years

We are currently following enrolled children at 4 and 6 years of age. We are obtaining
structural MRIs and rsfMRIs. In addition, we are assessing cognitive function and behavior
with Stanford-Binet, BRIEF and BASC.
