"Through my placements, I've learnt that it's the little things that matter the most. Competence, professionalism and technical skills are essential, but it's kindness, a smile, a welcome cup of tea, and a genuine warmth, that patients appreciate and remember."

Exciting Research Alert! 🚨

Did you know that anxiety in young girls and women could be linked to specific brain chemicals? The School of Psychology's latest study reveals that Gamma-Aminobutyric Acid (GABA) and Glutamate play crucial roles in mental health. As young women age, GABA levels increase while Glutamate levels decrease, correlating with increased anxiety levels.

This groundbreaking research, published in Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience, sheds light on the importance of neurochemical changes in the developing brain and their association with anxiety. 💡 Dr. Kathrin Cohen Kadosh, a co-corresponding author, of the study, emphasizes the significance of understanding these brain chemicals for early detection and treatment of anxiety disorders in young women.
