Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the safety and effects of a crystalized form of lithium, AL001, when compared to commonly used Lithium Carbonate in healthy volunteers. The main questions this study aims to answer are:

How safe and effective is AL001 when compared to Lithium Carbonate? How is AL001 broken down in the brain and body compared to Lithium Carbonate?

Participants will be asked to:

* Take both the study drug (AL001) and Lithium Carbonate each for a period of 14 days
* Stay overnight at MGH's research unit for two separate 2-week periods
* Participate in two separate 24 hour periods of multiple MRIs and blood draws
