About this trial

Rady Children's Institute for Genomic Medicine seeks to understand the genomes and immune systems in 15 children and adolescents who are admitted to Rady Children's Hospital Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Service with psychotic symptoms or schizophrenia. Cutting-edge genome and protein sequencing technology will be used to better understand how immunological and genetic assessments may improve our ability to identify the cause of psychosis and impact care. The investigator also hopes to identify new genetic and/or autoimmune causes of psychosis that may inform new treatment for future patients.
