The DEEP project aims to describe psychopathology and deficiences in neuropsychological, neuroimaging and neurophysiological examination of subjects vulnerable to psychosis. The study is focused on first-degree relatives of schizophrenia patients, patients attending psychiatric outpatient care, psychotic patients and healthy controls. The sample consists of 157 subjects who were examined at baseline and will be followed. The DEEP project has produced several articles and one thesis is under preparation.
