“For the millions of people out there who are being diagnosed with multiple psychiatric conditions, this indicates that they don't have multiple distinct things going on. I think it makes a big difference for a patient to hear that.”
What Andrew Grotzinger has said
“Genetically, we saw that they are more similar than they are unique. By identifying what is shared across these disorders, we can hopefully come up with strategies to target them in a different way that doesn't require four separate pills or four separate psychotherapy interventions.”

“Right now, we diagnose psychiatric disorders based on what we [doctors] see in the [examining] room, and many people will be diagnosed with multiple disorders. That can be hard to treat, and disheartening for patients. The team's new research provides the best evidence yet that there may be things that we are currently giving different names to that are actually driven by the same biological processes.”
