Unlocking the Secrets of Schizophrenia
Description
At least two million people will fall victim to schizophrenia in their lifetime-more men than women, according to statistics. This award-winning documentary goes straight to the National Institutes of Health to examine what causes schizophrenia and what some of the available treatments are. See how medications are researched and developed and how scientists, mental health advocacy groups, and government agencies are joining forces to improve the lives of people with schizophrenia. Senator Peter Domenici (R-NM) discusses specific government efforts aimed at dealing with the disorder.
