Every study works in mice.
Human trials, not so much. Also, who would volunteer for depression + psychedelics before and after brain biopsies to prove this thesis? Maybe try it on the "before" sample in vitro first?
- wavefunction 5y agoThis seems like something that could be measured with at least one of the scanning techniques we already employ. It seems like an MRI could provide a rough result that could lead to further and more direct testing.
- failwhaleshark 5y agoGross structural scanning is essentially worthless when it comes to pathway functions.
- taneq 5y agoOf course it doesn't. The fact that we don't hear about all the trials that don't produce a significant result in mice is more to do with the state of science publication than to do with mice.
