Is mirtazapine really the second most effective antidepressant for major depressive disorder? Thread below on our latest paper in @eClinicalMed together with @f_hieronymus exploring this possibility.

MIA distorts or ignores basic facts about genetics that are necessary to keep one tethered to a sensible scientific worldview

@PGCgenetics are dismayed that @OrchidInc’s embryo testing includes common chronic disorders such as schizophrenia https://t.co/6hrOioSyG6

Their information on the genetics of schizophrenia refers to @PGCgenetics research

Have you ever wondered which brain (cortical) atlas to use, and how much information each capture?
The amazing (registered) work by @Anna_Furtjes, gives a good first answer.
As always this is team work, this time with @StuartJRitchie, @JamesCole_Neuro

PSA: I was today years old when I learned that holding in the spacebar on a phone switches to scroll mode. This makes correcting text so much easier easier than trying to tap on specific points.

The new Paris 2021-26 urban biking plan will invest €250 million to, among other things, make 52km of pandemic bike-lanes permanent; add 130km of new bike-lanes; add 130K new bike parking spots; & teach all elementary school students to bike.

Leadership.

Anti-psychiatry all-star Joanna Moncrieff, who slams antidepressants has now set her ideological sights on Lithium, the single best treatment for bipolar disorder we currently have, which has decades of EXCELLENT research supporting its first line use in bipolar disorder. /1

[Tyler Black, MD @tylerblack32]

So hey #medtwitter, I know that Invega and Zyprexa and Saphris are new sexy drugs, but for bipolar disorder, have you considered lithium? Yeah, I know, that drug rep WAS pretty hot... but... this medication deserves a rep.
