These services are needed to ensure concerted storage, retrieval and management of imaging, clinical, behavioral and related information and facilitate complex data analyses across the entire branch. Background Information The mission of the EDB is to study the pathophysiology, development, and treatment of pediatric mood and anxiety disorders. EDB probes pathophysiology using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) procedures and examines development by acquiring data over time on multiple behaviors, clinical indicators, and measures of brain function. Moreover, EDB studies treatments in the context of randomized controlled trials. EDB is currently using state-of-the-art techniques to acquire data in each of these areas. This includes pathophysiological data from brain imaging, behavioral data from cognitive tasks, and data on treatment from clinical assessments. Given the amount of care that goes into the acquisition of these data, EDB needs routine archiving and retrieval of such information and requires consultations from an expert whose primary focus is on the use of database tools, who is also sensitive to issues of data security.
