An important aspect of medicine is measuring the function of the human body. It is often advantageous to convert complex functional measures into simpler, intuitive measures such as 'age'. We can compare functional age to chronological age to diagnose disease. In this project, we will build an estimate of 'brain age' in children and adolescents using recordings of the electrical activity of the brain. We will test this 'brain age' as a diagnostic tool in several neurological disorders.

医学的一个重要方面是测量人体的功能。将复杂的函数度量转换为更简单、直观的度量（如“年龄”）通常是有利的。我们可以比较功能年龄和实际年龄来诊断疾病。在这个项目中，我们将使用大脑电活动的记录来估计儿童和青少年的“大脑年龄”。我们将测试这个“大脑年龄”作为几种神经系统疾病的诊断工具。
