Finding new ways to diagnose childhood brain tumours
Cambridge researchers are using new techniques to distinguish different types of medulloblastoma, a type of brain tumour in children. With one in four children with this tumour type suffering long-term memory loss and speech issues after surgery, it is important that we work towards improving diagnostic methods which avoid surgery Jessica Taylor Funded by The Brain Tumour Charity, this research aims to develop new ways to diagnose medulloblastoma using minimally invasive methods, protecting the quality of life of children with this diagnosis.

Imagine that you are in pain. Maybe you stepped off a ladder and hurt your shoulder. The pain isn't intense enough for you to go to the doctor immediately, so you wait. Before you know it, the pain won't let you sleep, and you can't carry your groceries. You finally run to the doctor expecting they'll diagnose the underlying cause of your pain and relieve your symptoms.

Antipsychotics are increasingly being prescribed to children - here’s why we should be concerned
Matthias Pierce , University of Manchester Kathryn Abel , University of Manchester An increasing number of young people in the UK are being referred to child and adolescent mental health services (CAMHS). Alongside this is the rising number of children prescribed medicines that treat mental illness. The evidence for the effectiveness and safety of these drugs comes almost entirely from studies in adults.

Clinical trial launches for new schizophrenia drug
A potential new treatment for schizophrenia developed by Cardiff University's Medicines Discovery Institute is entering the first phase of a clinical trial. The drug - MDI-26478 - is designed to target specific receptors that play a key role in brain health. Cognitive decline is a core element of schizophrenia and current treatments fail to treat this effectively.
