According to a study, young people with a genetic alteration that raises the risk of mental illnesses have significantly different brain activity during sleep.
Young people living with a genetic alteration that increases the risk of psychiatric disorders have markedly different brain activity during sleep, a new study shows.
The brain activity patterns during sleep shed light on the neurobiology behind a genetic condition called 22q11.2 Deletion Syndrome (22q11.2DS) and could be used as a biomarker to detect the onset of neuropsychiatric disorders in people with 22q11.2DS.
The federal government is taking a close look at options to guarantee results from newly proposed mental-health funding to provinces, according to Canada s mental health minister Carolyn Bennett.
