The C-MIND study was launched in 2009 to establish a database of scans showing the structure and activity of the growing brain. The database includes imaging and behavioral data from over 200 typically developing children (aged 0 to 18 years) in the United States of America. Additionally, C-MIND contains longitudinal imaging and behavioral data on 40 infants and toddlers aged 0 to 3 years and 30 children aged 7 to 9 years.
