About the Core

The Brain Imaging Core is central to the integration of behavioral and biological research at the Waisman Center IDDRC. Mental retardation and developmental disabilities, whether resulting from environmental factors or genetic factors, involve a pathological alteration of brain structure and/or function. Examination of such alterations is critical to our understanding of the causal pathways from environmental or genetic processes to behavioral outcome and for the development of preventive or ameliorative interventions.
