Brain Imaging (Neuroimaging)

"Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MR) will be acquired on a research dedicated Siemens 3Tesla TIM TRIO MRI scanner with a 32-channel head coil.The MRI scanning protocol will have scans to measure voxelwise and whole-brain measures of grey matter (GM) volumes through a high resolution T1-weighted (T1W) multi-echo magnetization prepared gradient echo (MEMPRAGE) anatomic scan.~Total time in scanner will be approximately 53 minutes."

OTHER

Cognitive Function Assessment

Cognitive function will be assessed using several batteries; the Repeatable Battery for the Assessment of Neuropsychological Status (RBANS), the Controlled Oral Word Association Test (COWA), the Color Trails 1 \& 2, the WAIS-III Digit Span and Letter Number Sequence test, the Stroop Test, and the California Computerized Assessment Package Reaction Time test (CALCAP).
