Study Description:

The Brain Power study is a short-term nutrition research study designed to help scientists determine how the diet of children as infants affects their current brain function. Participants in the study are healthy adolescents, ages 7 ½ through 8 ½ who were fed a mostly soy-based formula diet from birth through 12 months. Participants attend between 1 and 3 study visits on the ACH campus. Components of the study include thorough body measurements of the child; psychological testing; brain function testing; and an fMRI scan by ACH's Department of Radiology. Compensation may be provided in the form of cash, check or a cash card beginning with $25.00 for the first visit and $50.00 each for both the second and third visits. Additionally, a bonus of $175.00 will be given for completing all three visits. Partially completed visits may be partially compensated.
