S3E1 - Hallucinations, Linguistics, and Neurofilaments

This month Mazz kicks things off with a discussion around the differences (or lack thereof) between hallucinations in personality disorders and psychotic disorders, Alanna looks into some promising research regarding the use of biomarkers in psychiatry, and Shakira takes us through the latest on the linguistic expertise of psychiatrists.
