Healthy children ages 7-17 are invited to participate in a research study at Boston Children's Hospital aiming to learn about pediatric migraine.

During the visit, participants answer general health questionnaires, determine their sensitivity to warm and cold temperatures, and receive a contrast-free MRI.

At the end of the visit, participants receive $50 AmEx gift card and a picture of their brain from the MRI.

Subjects are asked to simply relax during the MRI (no stimulation), and MRI is a very safe, radiation-free technology.

Participants must be right-handed and not have braces.

Please email Adriana at migraine@childrens.harvard.edu or call 781-216-1199 for more information!
