Did you know it takes an average of 8 years to diagnose #BipolarDisorder?
Newly published research from the Psychiatric Genomics Consortium (bit.ly/3JkuokY) aims to improve this by learning more about the condition’s underlying biology. Now in Nature: rdcu.be/d69fY 1/4

Olanzapine’s reputation for treating acute mania is stronger than the data.

Not terrible—but not great either
