Clinical trials in psychiatry rely on measures of symptomatology, not biology. This @acnporg.bsky.social position paper lays out why validated biomarkers in psychiatry have lagged behind fields like Alzheimer's and ALS, and what it will take to close the gap. www.nature.com/articles/s44...

oooof Kirby got one of those embedded in his paw a couple years ago - and his paws are webbed so the vet had to really dig in there to get it out. Thankfully he didn’t have to go under for her to find it, but that was not a fun vet bill.
