First physiological test for schizophrenia and depression

Interesting but given the gap between research which is miles above clinical psychiatry, how many time needed before applications of breakthrough on the field?

@y76 I feel like I don’t care, but as quick as a cure is found my functioning will improve by leaps and bounds.
I am prepared to suffer all my life, but I would rather not.

I wonder if these findings are a result of more focus on the NMDA receptor as of late. I have a feeling that for a certain subset of the population this may be the easiest form of the illness to treat.
Still I think we are years away from seeing this put into clinical practice.

I wonder if a doctor could just give the solution to a patient and send it off to a special lab without any approval, because it wouldn’t hurt the patient. Probably not…

That would be nice.

If I could only test negative and then find a way to get by without meds I would be all set.
