Project description
The role of neurodevelopment in psychiatric disorders
Many neuropsychiatric disorders are treated using drugs that target the transmission of the neurotransmitter serotonin. However, the suboptimal efficacy of these drugs alongside new lines of research highlighting a role for serotonin in neurodevelopment have urged scientists to revisit the origins and treatment of these disorders. The EU-funded SEROTONIN and BEYOND project will work under the hypothesis that serotonin-related neuropsychiatric disorders are caused by neurodevelopmental changes. To address this scientific concept, the project will train early-stage researchers in state-of-the-art techniques, preparing them for a bright career in the field.
