Fragile X Difference of a Difference Map

Caption

This composite image, created by Stanford researchers Fumiko Hoeft and Allan Reiss, shows the difference in growth of brain regions from first measurement to second measurement in study participants with Fragile X compared to controls. Areas in green grew in volume faster in Fragile X than controls. Areas in red started off large in Fragile X at time 1 and remained large at time 2, and areas in blue started off small in Fragile X at time 1 and remained small at time 2.
