Sponsor

University of Alabama at Birmingham

Who can join

Adults 17 to 35, any sex, with Psychosis. Patients with the condition only — healthy volunteers not accepted.

Sponsor's own description

Psychosis is a heterogeneous disorder and present treatment only works for a limited number of patients. In order to identify new therapeutic targets, this study will longitudinally characterize the underlying pathologies in those with poor treatment response using complimentary brain imaging modalities.
