Project Details

Description

Will use advanced functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) brain scans to measure the dynamics of neural circuits integrating visual and tactile information in patients with schizophrenia and autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Higher-order cognitive functions require the brain to integrate information from multiple sources, and deficits in this ability characterize schizophrenia and ASD. The study may reveal targets for therapeutic intervention as well as neural signals to use as biological markers of treatment response.
