Healthy Children Can Help Scientists Understand the Brain – Join the Study
Healthy children ages 8 to 17 are invited to participate in this 12-week outpatient study on mood and anxiety disorders. The study investigates how the brain changes during computer-based training tasks, and how breathing patterns and emotions are related. Procedures include psychological interviews, a physical exam, lab work, and brain scans. Study participants must be medically healthy, free of current or past history of psychiatric illness, and not currently taking any medication. Parent and child must consent to participate.
The study is conducted at the NIH Clinical Center in Bethesda, Maryland. There is no cost to participate and compensation is provided.
