There is a lot of research on our next topic: the biological basis of schizophrenia. There is still a lot more work to do but we have a lot of information to build on. Read the sections called, “Diagnosis”, “Genetics”, and “The Neurodevelopmental Hypothesis” in module 14.3 (15.2 in the 11th edition) of the textbook.
