The purpose of this study is to understand brain development during childhood and brain changes with aging. We will look at brain changes and development in healthy adults and children. We will also look at brain changes and development in people with different developmental disorders, including sex chromosome variations.
Previous studies have shown that parts of the brain develop at different times. They have also shown that brain development can be different in people with various diseases. However, we do not fully understand normal brain development and aging. We do not know how it differs in people with certain illnesses that affect thinking and behavior. We are just starting to understand how genes can affect brain development. This study examines the relationship between genes, brain development, and behavior throughout life. P
Researchers are enrolling healthy volunteers for an outpatient research study to learn more about how the brain works.
Research participation may include cognitive tasks, personality tests, brain imaging and/or magnetoencephalography (MEG). Participants may choose which research tasks they would like to participate in, which determines the number of visits (1-12) to the NIH Clinical Center in Bethesda, MD.
The study is enrolling eligible participants, between the ages of 18 and 65, who are in good physical health, and at least a high school education. There is no cost to participate and compensation is provided.
