To see if eye tracking (ET) or electroencephalogram (EEG) assessments have potential use in future clinical trials of Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD).

We want to learn more about how cancer treatment, such as immunotherapy (i.e., CAR T cell treatment), affects the brain, learning, and behavior in patients with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL).

The objective of this study is to better understand how a single ventricular heart with Fontan physiology may affect brain health.

The first Phase IIb clinical trial in Down syndrome regression disorder (DSRD). An open-label, randomized study comparing the safety and efficacy of lorazepam, intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) and the Janus Kinase inhibitor (JAK inhibitor), tofacitinib.

Develop better ways of screening and diagnosing certain types of brain injuries in infants and children who are born with and without congenital heart disease.

To better understand the genetic changes that make children susceptible to the development of autism spectrum disorder, and to study how these changes influence clinical outcomes.

Determine how potentially stressful situations, including prematurity, hospitalizations, maternal mental health and rapid repeat births can impact a baby’s development in the first 12 months of their life.

The purpose of this study is to understand the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on vulnerable families in Los Angeles, including those caring for a child with special health care needs. Information from this research will be used to understand what the key resource and service needs of families are at this time as well as identify interventions that can be developed or adapted to address these needs.

Two main purposes of the study: (1) to see if social communication of children with TSC can be improved with a short term behavioral intervention (JASPER) and (2) to see if these improvements remain long after the study, and whether they can be observed with electroencephalography (EEG).

The collection of the research data we hope will help better screening, diagnosing procedures and treatment of brain injury in newborns and identify a connection between MR imaging and neurodevelopmental outcomes.
