Perceiving Is Believing: Perceptual Inference Anomalies In Schizophrenia.
Funder

Funding Amount
$344,824.00
Summary
In this study we explore the brain-ability-behaviour relationships that can explain causes of the severe mental illness, schizophrenia. Changes in the brain in schizophrenia affect how people perceive the world around them. Perception relies on our ability to use information in memory to shape what we perceive. We will study brain activity and task abilities that help us to understand where why and how this process becomes disrupted in the brain in persons with schizophrenia.
Development And Evaluation Of A Novel Early Language Assessment Tool To Identify Vulnerable Children Who Would Benefit From Referral To Allied Health Pathways
Funder
National Health and Medical Research Council
Funding Amount
$554,388.00
Summary
Language disorder or delay are best addressed via allied health pathways. However, referral to such services requires a child's carers being able to differentiate typical and atypical development, causing high levels of over- and under-referral. We will develop an early Language and Communication tool that can be used by a child's carers to generate high-quality pre-diagnostic information, enabling appropriate and timely referral, and reducing current burdens on allied health services.
