POTENTIAL RESEARCH APPLICATIONS

Some examples of research projects underway at the BCCH MRI Research Facility over the past year include:
 

 

  • Typical and atypical visual brain development;

  • Networks underlying cognitive impairment and non-pharmaceutical interventions in schizophrenia;

  • Early brain structure and function in newborn infants with prenatal exposure to maternal depressed mood and antidepressant medication;

  • Language localization and lateralization in children with autism spectrum disorder;

  • Neuroimaging of children with pediatric obsessive-compulsive disorders;

  • Structural and functional brain differences in children with developmental coordination disorder;

  • Brain changes following intervention for dyslexia

  • The role of fatty acids in brain development of healthy children;

  • Language mapping for planning of pediatric epilepsy surgery, and

  • Traumatic brain injury in adolescent athletes.

  • Effects of air pollution on cognition
