Left-Handed Boys with Autism 11-18 Years Old: Participate in Brain Imaging Research

Researchers at Boston University School of Medicine are seeking boys ages 11-18 with autism or Asperger Syndrome for a study of brain structure and function using MRI. Participation involves cognitive testing, practice in a pretend brain scanner, and the MRI.

Each participant will receive a picture of his brain and be compensated $50 for the MRI scan. For the cognitive testing, participants will receive reports and be compensated $40.
