In a news release from the University of New South Wales, author Philip B. Mitchell, M.D. said, “Our results show that bipolar disorder may be linked to a dysfunction in emotional regulation and this is something we will continue to explore. And we now have an extremely promising method of identifying children and young people at risk of bipolar disorder. We expect that early identification will significantly improve outcomes for people that go on to develop bipolar disorder, and possibly even prevent onset in some people.”
