Understanding the role of DISC1 in psychiatric disease and during normal development.
12 Oct 2009 
The biology of schizophrenia is complex with multiple hypotheses (dopamine, glutamate, neurodevelopmental) well supported to underlie the disease. Pathways centered on the risk factor "disrupted in schizophrenia 1" (DISC1) may be able to explain and ... Read more...
Bidirectional signaling of ErbB and Eph receptors at synapses.
27 Sep 2009 Synapse development and remodeling are regulated by a plethora of molecules such as receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs), a family of cell surface receptors that play critical roles in neural development. Two families of RTKs implicated in synaptic ... Read more...
30 Jul 2009 STUDY OBJECTIVE: To assess the usefulness of a metabolic risk screening program, including point-of-care glucose testing, to quantify baseline metabolic risk in outpatients receiving antipsychotics. DESIGN: Retrospective, cross-sectional, cohort ... Read more...
