Thanks to @TheAtlantic’s #AtlanticHealth for inviting me to share the stage with distinguished big thinkers. I loved sharing our research (with support from @BD2Discoveries) to find treatments and mechanisms for #bipolardisorder and #mentalhealth.
At #AtlanticHealth: @wyssinstitute’s @jenny_m_tam shares a Research Spotlight on finding balance in bipolar disorder through drug prediction and screening. Tune in:

Thank you @wyssinstitute for letting me share both my personal and scientific journey. I’m excited for the impact we can make in mental health and bipolar disorder
According to @jenny_m_tam, science helps explain a chaotic world, answering important questions. At the Wyss, Jenny leads the CircaVent team, which aims to find new treatments for bipolar disorder. Learn more about Jenny & her work in this month’s #HOWyss

Did you know that the standard treatment for bipolar disorder, lithium, was discovered over 70 years ago? I'm excited to lead this team of passionate, creative, and dynamic scientists to help find more effective treatments for the ~40 million patients with bipolar. #bipolar
Wyss Institute’s CircaVent project wins generous philanthropic grant to support its research into bipolar disorder and better treatments. @BD2Discoveries @jenny_m_tam

All conferences should come with a river and skyline view! Great to meet new folks and hang out with old ones while listening to @geochurch and other visionaries in #healthTech at #applysci.
Raphael Ferreira, Chun-Ting Wu, Katharina Meyer, and Jenny Tam, attended ApplySci - Deep Tech Health and NeuroTech on Friday. They heard from @geochurch and got to network and learn valuable info to help with their Validation Projects, FASTeN and CircaVent. #ApplySci

#bipolar #bipolardisorder #bipolarclub Our unique high-throughout screening platform of xenopus and cerebral organoids are finding promising hits for bipolar treatment. We need more effective treatments.
Bipolar disorder affects ~9 million in the US alone, but there isn't an effective treatment. Wyss researchers developed CircaVent, a high-throughput drug screening platform to ID & test drugs that could treat the underlying causes of #BipolarDisorder.

On #WorldBipolarDay and as part of the CircaVent team with @geochurch and @DonIngber at the @wyssinstitute, we strive to bring therapeutics to patients suffering from bipolar. Mental illness is still a stigma, and we need to be aware of the challenges bipolar patients face.
On #WorldBipolarDay, learn more about CircaVent, a Wyss tech that offers the potential to dramatically speed up the discovery of drugs to treat biploar and other mental health disorders.
