Normal and Abnormal Brain Development
Non invasive brain imaging enables prospective studies of normal and abnormal braind development. The talk will be an overview of what we have learned from prospective normative studies and studies of psychotic and hyperactive children. There are significant effects of IQ, gender , genetics (generally) and risk alleles of specific genes known to affect brain development on the shape of regional brain developmental trajectories. Diagnostically specific developmental patterns are seen for psychotic, bipolar and ADHD populations. Some of the ADHD findings may be plastic response to illness as they are associated with a better outcome.
