Listen "Using brain imaging to diagnose mental illness"
Episode Synopsis
To mark Mental Health Week, we meet Dr Marta Garrido. Marta is a laboratory leader at QBI, and recently won a highly competitive UQ Research award for her work in schizophrenia. She's researching ways to use brain imaging to identify the onset of schizophrenia as soon as possible, to provide that all-important early intervention. But to understand how the brain works in people at risk of schizophrenia, Dr Garrido says we need to stop thinking of people as mentally healthy or mentally ill. Instead, we need to think of it as a spectrum.CREDITHosted by Kirsten MacGregorProduced by Jessica McGaw & Donna Lu
