Brain development is altered in people at high risk of psychosis
Neuroscientists have shown the brain’s white matter develops slower in young people at high clinical risk of a psychotic episode, which may pave the way for earlier treatment

Schizophrenia: Mapping how the brain changes
A new brain scanning technique reveals how changes in white and grey matter seen in schizophrenia are linked, and how the brain compensates for these changes, at least in the illness’s early stages

Spinning diamonds for quantum precision
Quantum sensors are allowing us to see the tiniest parts of our world but external magnetic fields can easily break their crucial quantum state. By introducing extra spin, scientists have discovered they can trick a quantum system to keep it going.
