Connectivity in the Brain and Autism (COBRA) Study

The COBRA study is exploring neurological, hemodynamic, and electrophysiological differences between Autistic and neurotypical individuals using vision as a model system. Participants will complete a clinical neurocognitive evaluation, 4 fMRI sessions, behavioral psychophysics experiments on a computer, and an EEG session. Depending on session length, participants will be paid between $350-$450.
