Physical markers & treatment of mental illness

In this episode, Alice Limonciel and Sabine Bahn discuss how to improve the tools for diagnosing and treating patients with mental illness, from depression to schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. Together, they discuss the relevance of omics to provide much needed physical diagnosis of these conditions, and the impact of metabolomics in this field.
