If your child has anxiety and is 10 to 13 years old, they may be eligible to participate in the LEMUR study. Participation in the LEMUR study involves answering some questions about how your child thinks and acts in a variety of situations, getting a picture of their brain taken in our brain camera (MRI), and staying overnight at our sleep suite. All participants will be asked to participate in three waves over the next 3 years, each wave separated by 1.5 years (18 months). Visits within each wave remain the same and participants can earn up to $500 per wave for a total of $1500 at the end of the study!
