Funded Activity Summary

Schizophrenia is a devastating illness. Medication can successfully treat the 'positive' symptoms, such as hallucinations and delusions. However, cognitive impairments have been identified as a greater burden. This project aims to better understand the brain basis of these cognitive impairments, by looking at the relationships between participants’ responses to cognitive tests, their brain activity during the testing, and their symptoms and general functioning over time.
