Investigating and comparing two disorders (i.e., OCD and GD) with phenomenological different types of compulsive behaviors central to their pathology can elucidate common mechanisms of compulsivity in psychiatry - core features- as well as specific…
To investigate the impact of the multispecies probiotic product Ecologic*Barrier on neurocognitive measures of emotion and executive functioning.
There are two objectives for this study: first, to find specific serum beta cell damage markers that can serve as a clinical predictive tool for beta cell allograft loss. Second, to compare quality of life and diabetes-related outcomes in patients…
The primary objective of the proposed study is to examine the neural substrate of cognitive and social-emotional apathy in patients with schizophrenia. Secondary, we intend to explore the concentration of brain metabolites and structural differences…
The proposed experimental pilot study focuses on harm reduction in a specific subpopulation, i.e. in patients with schizophrenia (long-term psychotic disorder) with a suboptimal response to the currently available interventions, smoking a lot of…
The above anounced studies suggest that some abnormalities in the Wnt pathway can be expected to affect development and function of the brain, potentially leading to recognizable behavioural phenotypes. Given the key role of APC in the Wnt pathway,…
Distinguishing frontal lobe epilepsy from ADHD in terms of working memory.
Purpose of the study is to investigate neurocognitive and behavioral development in children of morthers with epilepsy, primary school age, and who were exposed to anti-epileptic drugs in utero. Primary research questions are: 1. what is the nature…
Original study:The goal of this study is to have a theoretically based understanding of how sub processes of self-concept development emerge in relation to each other. The primary objective is to test a neuroscientific model of self-concept…
The main goal of this study is to validate the VR-game as a tool to provoke OCD symptoms and assess OCD symptom severity. The first objective is to investigate whether the VR-game is able to provoke OCD symptoms in OCD patients. The second objective…
Description of cognitive, psychiatric and neuroanatomical profile in adult women with triple X syndrome compared with a group of healthy controls on average of the same age and of the same IQ. IQ is considered as a potential confounder and treated…

The proposed study aims to bring neuroimaging and genetics closer to the child/adolescent psychiatric clinic by developing automated classifiers, and obtain associated multimodal biomarker profiles. Such biomarkers are prospected to, aid in clinical…
With this research project we will investigate the relationship between SSRI concentration in the (pre)term neonate and clinical short and long term effects on the neonate after exposure to SSRI*s during pregnancy and lactation. Furthermore, the…
The research objective is to investigate the sensitivity, specificity, and predictive values of the delirium monitor based on 4 standardized EEG electrodes who record brain activity.
The objective of the current study is to obtain normative data of healthy individuals on brain measures, cognition and blood markers. In addition, we acquire information on childhood trauma, metabolic and immunological parameters in a cohort of…
We aim to validate MRS with a cholinergic challenge as method to investigate muscarinic M1 receptor functioning. To investigate the relationship between the response to a muscarinic receptor antagonist with biperiden phMRI and [123I]IDEX SPECT…
To systematically unravel the complex victimhood of refugee mothers and their children, and to discern whether children born from sexual violence face even greater challenges. This information will be used to develop resources for professionals…
