We are looking for pre-teens ages 10-14 of all gender expressions to participate in our study exploring how hormones affect the development of different parts of the brain during puberty. This is a longitudinal study that requires 4 visits across 4 years.

Each visit will include:

• Comprehensive physical, cognitive, and behavioral evaluations

• Brain imaging with Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) (safe, non-invasive, no x-rays/radiation)

• Blood test (including genetic analysis)

Potential benefits for participating:

• Receipt of written reports from cognitive and behavioral evaluations

• Up to $130 honorarium for each year of participation
