Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This application seeks to determine if neurophysiological metrics of memantine (MEM)-enhanced early auditory information processing (EAIP) in schizophrenia (SZ) mediate gains in auditory processing fidelity (APF) and auditory learning.
