Pancreatic cancer is a deadly disease and the best hope for improving the chances of survival is to find it early. Some patients, called "high risk", have an inherited predisposition to pancreatic cancer. Certain medical centers have started programs where "high risk patients" undergo testing, such as receiving imaging scans, to look for…
Anorexia Nervosa is a serious illness and relapse rates are high. We have shown that behavioral routines get stuck/entrenched. Our newest research, Relapse Prevention and Changing Habits (REACH+) for Anorexia Nervosa, aims to help patients minimize unhelpful routines and develop more healthful recovery-oriented behavior. Participants will complete initial…
Our lab is conducting brain imaging research studies investigating people's behavior. We are looking for people between the ages of 18 and 65 to be study participants. As a schizophrenia study participant, you will be asked to complete a set of self-report questionnaires probing personality traits. You will also complete a number of computer-based…
In this study, we are trying to learn more about the symptoms of psychosis, specifically to learn how alterations in the brain may produce certain experiences (including voice hearing or auditory hallucinations) that are common in people with psychosis or schizophrenia. The study involves clinical interviews, computer tests, and magnetic resonance imaging (…
People with bulimia nervosa engage in risky behaviors more often than people without this disorder. We are researching the neurobiological underpinnings of risky decision-making in bulimia nervosa. As a participant in this study, you would: (1) complete a series of questionnaires and interviews, (2) complete an MRI scan (no radiation), and (3) complete…
People with bulimia nervosa engage in risky behaviors more often than people without this disorder. We are researching the neurobiological underpinnings of risky decision-making in bulimia nervosa. As a participant in this study, your teen would: (1) complete a series of questionnaires and interviews, (2) complete an MRI scan (no radiation), and (3)…
The purpose of this study is to learn which treatment works best in patients with pancreatic cancer. The study explores multiple treatment combinations. A study drug called atezolizumab may be combined with other drugs such as cobimetinib, PEGPH20, and BL-8040. Patients may also be assigned to receive standard chemotherapy treatment.
Our lab is conducting a series of research studies that investigate how specific brain regions are related to functioning in work, school, and in other social situations. As a study participant, you will be asked to complete clinical and neuropsychological assessments, an eye-tracking task, and a non-invasive MRI scan. Study participants earn between $15-50…
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the brain wave patterns are improved after administration of CVN058 compared to placebo in subjects with schizophrenia. The study uses electroencephalography (EEG) to measure naturally occurring brain waves as you listen to recorded sounds.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of different doses and durations of TV-46000 given by subcutaneous (under the skin) injection as compared to placebo for use as a potential maintenance in adults with schizophrenia.
In this study, we are trying to learn more about the symptoms of schizophrenia, specifically to learn how abnormalities in the brain may produce certain experiences that are common in patients with schizophrenia. The study involves clinical interviews, clinical chart review, computer tests, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans.
This study plans to learn more about an investigational new drug called lumateperone tosylate (ITI-007) and may help us find new types of treatment for schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorder.
