I'm sitting in a stupor and doing nothing. Had psychiatry existed, I would have run to the psychiatrist right away, because in November, a 6th year will start in a dysfunctional state, with no relationships, no proper work. Affect and ruminations.

During work, I see people holding hands, walking with their kids, and even hugging - and I feel like a steel hook is thrust into my abdomen and is being turned there. I feel like I'm in hell, and this feeling lingers, and ruminations start, and they don't stop.

As we have learned, genes have dose-dependent effects on psychiatric traits. DOSAGE, it turns out, is a key element that helps unravel mechanisms of gene → pathway → cell type → brain region → diagnosis. Here we developed a framework to characterize cellular processes that mediate genetic effects.

The field of neuroscience views the goal of human genetics as "finding genes". This is an outdated view. In whole genome studies of rare variants, finding genes is the easy part. The more interesting and important goal is to map out the causal pathway from genes to brain function to cognitive traits

Robert DeRosa, 42, was a marathon runner and teacher before long COVID upended his life. He fell ill after a Disney vacation to Florida in February 2020. Now unable to work, he lives with his dad and rarely leaves home. “You feel powerless,” he says. “No one’s fighting for you.” archive.md/n4120
He ran marathons and hiked Everest. But after being ravaged by long COVID, this Hamilton man can’t work — he can barely leave home

Former teacher, sick for five years, fights to be taken seriously as pandemic fades into background.
