Hello-My name is Christine, and I am the Research Assistant for this study. This was posted a couple days ago by admin, but I wanted to repost since things move so fast here. Thanks!
We have a new imaging study going on at NYU Langone Medical Center. We are looking at 18-30 year olds who have a dx of SCZ, SZA, or BP with psychotic features, or who have had a first break and have not yet received a dx. We are also looking at siblings of patients.
The study is non-therapeutic and takes around 6 or 7 hours. It consists of an MRI, cognitive assessment, diagnostic interview, and blood draw. Participants are paid $160 upon completion of the study.
