A research project funded by the National Institute on Drug Abuse to study the effects of prenatal cannabis exposure on psychotic-like experiences and neural reward circuitry in youth, using longitudinal data and machine learning to inform early interventions.
Description
This project aims to understand the impact of prenatal cannabis exposure on youth mental health, focusing on psychosis risk and neural circuitry. It involves longitudinal modeling, neuroimaging (fMRI), and machine learning techniques, leveraging data from the ABCD Study. The research will inform early intervention strategies and biomarker discovery.
