💻 Generative AI in mental health is a rapidly moving field!

📚 This study recently published in Acta Neuropsychiatrica aimed to shed light on the use of generative AI in psychiatry and #mentalhealth settings, by systematically reviewing the literature (40 studies examined!).⬇

🌟Neuropsychiatric disorders 🧠 are frequently associated with metabolic comorbidities. The contributions of our most recent Special Issue present a diverse array of studies that illustrate the breadth of Metabolic Neuropsychiatry.

This new study from Dr. Harkin’s group aimed to investigate mRNA expression of the kynurenine pathway (KP)enzymes in medicated patients with depression, and after ECT therapy. 🧬

Changes in expression of target KP enzymes correlated with changes in mood, w/ treatment response + remission. 📈
