New publication examining the association between GABA and treatment response in first-episode schizophrenia

sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Our newly published study in collaboration with COPSAC showed no effect of high-dose vitamin D3 supplementation in pregnancy on risk of autism and ADHD in the child. Yet higher maternal vitamin D was associated with a lower risk of both autism and ADHD.

🚨New pre-print alert 🚨 led by Laura Sichlinger KCL MRC DTP working across Srivastava Lab and The Vernon Lab to dissect the functions of ZNF804A, a gene long linked to #schizophrenia risk in human neurons in vitro.

Unmedicated first-episode psychosis patients display lower CSF C1q levels (n=200 patients and controls in total). New paper doi.org/10.1016/j.bbi.…

This is a fantastic opportunity for a small group (approx 20) participants to gain hands on experience of gene editing in iPSC with some of the best in the business - the team behind the iNDI intiiative. Applications open until March 15th:
