Description
This project will use data from a longitudinal cohort of adolescent girls in Oregon, USA, to examine how salivary immune markers are associated with functional connectivity of visceromotor and default mode networks during rest and social processing/evaluative tasks. This project could also examine how individual differences in associations between immunity and connectivity may predict the emergence of internalizing psychopathology.
