  • Morning People and Night Owls

    Updated: 2012-01-16 00:25:07
    It's true. The daily grind dealing with bosses, colleagues and repetitive work sours people's moods. But scientists say the cause appears to be something more than the work itself; people's biological clocks appears to be sending a message. "Though it might seem intuitive to suggest that the decrease in mood level during the midday hours is a result of workday-related stress," said Scott Golder, lead researcher for a study appearing today in the journal Science, "it turns out we see the same rhythmic shape on the weekends, when people typically are not working. This suggests to us that something more enduring is going on, such as the effect of biological processes and sleep"........

    Sadness, apathy, preoccupation. These traits come to mind when people think about depression, the world's most frequently diagnosed mental disorder. Yet, forthcoming research in the Journal of Abnormal Psychology provides evidence that depression has a positive side-effect. As per a newly released study by Bettina von Helversen (University of Basel, Switzerland), Andreas Wilke (Clarkson University), Tim Johnson (Stanford University), Gabriele Schmid (Technische Universit�t M�nchen, Gera number of), and Burghard Klapp (Charit� Hospital Berlin, Gera number of), depressed individuals perform better than their non-depressed peers in sequential decision tasks........

  • A better mouse model to study depression

    Updated: 2012-01-16 00:25:04
    Scientists at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine have developed a mouse model of major depressive disorder (MDD) that is based on a rare genetic mutation that appears to cause MDD in the majority of people who inherit it. The findings, which were published online today in the American Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics EarlyView, could help to clarify the brain events that lead to MDD, and contribute to the development of new and better means of therapy and prevention. This report also illustrates an advance in the design of recombinant mouse models that should be applicable to a number of human diseases........
