 Project Summary  Marinos Kyriakopoulos, M.D. (Young Investigator 2008) of Institute of Psychiatry/King's College London/University of London, will use imaging techniques in order to identify ways in which brain structure and function during adolescence differs between patients with schizophrenia who have the abnormal variations in specific genes and those who do not. Studying these genes that are linked to the production of the abnormal proteins can further increase our understanding of the underlying illness mechanisms. Also, adolescence is a critical period in the development of schizophrenia and may offer an important window of opportunity for prevention. Program Area: SCHIZOPHRENIA/PSYCHOTIC DISORDERS\Schizophrenia\First-Episode Psychosis |
