The University of Nottingham is hoping to attract funding to set up a National Child Neuroimaging Centre which could help establish how the brain develops during childhood.

One of the aims of the centre is to build up a clinical database of brain images across a range of neurodevelopmental conditions (including Tourette's) in an effort to better understand the etiology of the condition and investigate new treatment options.
