In an article published in La Presse, Dr. Fernando Gonzales-Aste, a researcher at the Douglas Research Centre, discusses the findings of a study that involved the team of Dr. Lena Palaniyappan. The study highlights biological similarities between depression, schizophrenia, and bipolar disorder.

Published in Neuroscience and Biobehavioral Reviews, the study identifies, among other findings, increased beta brain-wave activity across all three disorders. These findings contribute to a better understanding of the biological mechanisms shared by certain mental health disorders and could eventually pave the way for new therapeutic approaches and more personalized psychiatry.
