- Scientists have pinned down a molecular process in the brain that helps to trigger schizophrenia by analyzing data from about 29,000 schizophrenia cases, 36,000 controls and 700 post mortem brains. The information was drawn from dozens of studies performed in 22 countries. The authors stressed that their findings, which combine basic science with large-scale analysis of genetic studies, depended on an unusual level of cooperation among experts in genetics, molecular biology, developmental neurobiology and immunology. "This could not have been done five years ago".
- Researchers discover that rising atmospheric CO2 is resulting in less nutritious food, requiring 17 years of work across the literature of several disciplines.
