For the first time, science has the ability to unravel the underlying causes of severe mental illness ... For the first time in the history of the field, theres a way forward that can lead to significant improvement in diagnosis and therapy, and theres no place in the world better than this university to carry out the work.
Edward Scolnick

He is one of the scientists at MIT involved in new cutting edge psychiatric research.
The best part is my daughter is a junior at MIT this fall and is doing an internship at the Broad Institute (where Scholnik is). Although she is involved in cancer research, I told her to track this dude down in case he needs a guinea pig...cause I'm in. That is if they get the funding and he really means it.

Thats really cool...lets hope this part happens:
"Breakthroughs in understanding the origins of psychiatric illness must also be translated into therapeutics"

Thanks,

during this period, you will get a tardive dyskinesia, or feel periods of sh*t incarcarated by psychiatry
