I struggle to tell unwell patients that their #OCD is eminently treatable but it takes several weeks to see improvement. Science desperately needs to fill this treatment gap. New work by @BiriaMarjan et al at @Cambridge_Uni is providing a breakthrough here https://t.co/JzDWFY766F

Thrilled to share our new paper published in @NatureComms, led by @BiriaMarjan! We uncovered significant chemical imbalances in decision-making & habitual control regions of the brain in people with OCD 🧠
