Functional magnetic resonance spectroscopy (fMRS) can be used to investigate
neurometabolic responses to external stimuli in-vivo, but findings are inconsistent. We …

A multitude of studies investigating the effects of stress on cognition has produced an
inconsistent picture on whether-and under which conditions-stress has advantageous or …

Glutamate and dopamine systems play distinct roles in terms of neuronal signalling, yet both
have been proposed to contribute significantly to the pathophysiology of schizophrenia. In …

Economics and mental health are intertwined. Apart from the accumulating evidence of the
huge economic impacts of mental ill‐health, and the growing recognition of the effects that …

Adolescence is a time of significant neurocognitive development. Prolonged maturation of
prefrontal cortex (PFC) through adolescence has been found to support improvements in …

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is associated with significant cognitive and psychiatric

People that committed suicide were reported to have enhanced levels of gene transcripts for
synaptic proteins in their prefrontal cortex (PFC). Given the close association of suicide with …

Stress can cause a variety of central nervous system disorders, which are critically mediated
by the γ‐aminobutyric acid (GABA) system in various brain structures. GABAergic neurons …

Stress is a significant risk factor for the development of major depressive disorder (MDD), yet
the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Preclinically, adaptive and maladaptive stress …
