What is in the future?
Lars Terenius and his co-workers are currently
searching for genes that may be involved in schizophrenia. Examples
 of
such genes could be ones that are involved in the signaling systems
in which the neurotransmitters dopamine, serotonin, or the opioids
are a part. Lars Terenius thinks that many of the answers to the
mysteries surrounding schizophrenia may lie in the many studies
that have already been performed earlier. By summarizing the results
from these studies and looking at how they are related to each other
he thinks that it may be possible to get a complete picture of what
is happening in the brain in schizophrenia. Based on this knowledge,
one may then develop new drugs and treatment methods for the disease.
