Schizophrenia spurs imaging network

Research into the neural underpinnings of schizophrenia is set to take a big cyberstep forward. A $10.9 million federal grant awarded to scientists at University of California campuses in San Diego and Irvine will be used to create a massive database of brain images from several hundred people with schizophrenia, as well as from a comparable number of individuals with no mental disorders, the two universities announced.
