3 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
Reward processing will be examined in prenatally exposed emerging adults in a longitudinal design. Participants will be followed for one year to see if neural markers of reward processing prospectively predict risk-taking behavior.
The purpose of the study is to understand the biology and behavior of early mother-infant attachment, and to investigate how it may be affected by prenatal substance exposures. The investigators are interested in how drugs such as cocaine, alcohol, marijuana and cigarette smoking affect both mother and baby.
The goal of this study is to use \[C-11\]NPA and amphetamine (oral, 0.5 mg/kg) to measure striatal dopamine transmission in prenatal cocaine exposed subjects (PCE) and comparison subjects (COMP)
