The Chongqing Adolescent Twin Study: An Integrative Multimodal Brain Imaging and Non-imaging Dataset.

ABSTRACT: Adolescence is a pivotal phase of rapid brain development shaped by genetic and environmental factors, offering a critical window for identifying early indicators of psychiatric disorders. The Chongqing Adolescent Twin Study (CATS) explores genetic and environmental influences in 136 typically developing twins aged 12 to 19.
