“Challenges and Opportunities in Developmental Neuroimaging for Psychiatry”


Background: Dr. Satterthwaite’s goal is to use multimodal neuroimaging to better understand psychiatric symptoms in the context of brain development and reward system function. Areas of focus include studying a) how functional brain networks evolve in health and disease and b) how reward system function relates to symptoms such as anhedonia that are common across multiple traditional psychiatric diagnoses. Throughout, he places a particular emphasis on the application of novel analysis methodology for integrating high-dimensional imaging, clinical, and genomic data.
