A resource for studying brain and behavior across different ages
The NKI Rockland Sample II: An Open Resource of Multimodal Brain, Physiology & Behavior Data from a Community Lifespan Sample
This study is gathering brain and behavior information from people aged 6 to 85 to help us learn how our brains change as we get older, and the findings will be shared to support future research on mental health conditions.

What this research studies
This research initiative aims to create an advanced database of brain, physiology, and behavior data from a diverse community sample spanning ages 6 to 85. By utilizing cutting-edge neuroimaging techniques and genetic analysis, the project seeks to enhance our understanding of how brain connectivity and function change throughout the lifespan. Participants' data will be collected and shared publicly to facilitate further research in psychiatric and neurological conditions. This initiative builds on previous successful studies and aims to accelerate discoveries in mental health and biomarker identification.
Who could benefit from this research
Good fit: Ideal candidates for participation include individuals aged 6 to 85 who are interested in contributing to brain and behavior research.
Not a fit: Patients outside the age range of 6 to 85 years old may not benefit from this research.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this research could lead to new insights into brain health and mental well-being across different age groups.
How similar studies have performed: Previous research using similar multimodal approaches has shown success in advancing our understanding of brain function and mental health.
