Disease mechanisms in schizophrenia –
novel discoveries and implications for clinical treatment
This scientific meeting has been financially supported by Sunovion Pharmaceuticals Europe Ltd. (SPE).
There has been no influence from Sunovion on the agenda and/or content of the meeting.
Schizophrenia is a devastating disorder where current treatment is only symptomatic and unsatisfactory.
Here, we will discuss the most recent findings from research on disease mechanisms, and how these can be translated into new treatment approaches that can modify the disease course.
