This highlights an important challenge in psychiatry. Unlike many areas of medicine, psychiatry currently lacks definitive biological biomarkers for most disorders. However, diagnosis is not based solely on a clinician's opinion—it relies on standardized diagnostic criteria, comprehensive clinical interviews, longitudinal observation, functional impairment, and the exclusion of other medical conditions. Improving objective biomarkers remains a major research priority.

[Li Anna @LiAnna0213]

Well said. Scientific consensus is a valuable snapshot of the best available evidence—not the endpoint of scientific inquiry. Progress depends on continuously testing assumptions, refining models, and remaining open to new evidence. The DSM is an important clinical tool, but like all scientific frameworks, it should continue to evolve alongside advances in neuroscience and clinical research.

@doctorid @JDaviesPhD This raises an important point. Diagnostic frameworks are shaped by the populations they were originally developed and validated on. Expanding research to include more diverse populations can help reduce bias and improve the accuracy and equity of mental health care for everyone.

This bill sealed the fate of Californians. No chance of discourse with doctors or providers on the pandemic. Risks are too high to engage in discussion. Expect management regarding all facets of acute, long-hauler, and iatrogenic from mandated products to fall off to zero.

The American Cancer Society funded several grants to Dr. Ambros between 1980-1990 as well as a faculty research award grant to Dr. Ruvkun from 1991-1995. Much of this funded work was a precursor to Victor Ambros’ and Gary Ruvkun’s seminal discovery. We’re ecstatic to see them recognized for this honor!
