Quotes

"Actually being recognized by the school to me it meant so much more this year because we're on an international stage. President Obama was there, to be recognized for my accomplishments in front of Obama that was great in itself" said Ernest Nelson, Morehouse Salutatorian
"If you don't feed the mice tetracycline, the Neuregulin-1 levels are always high" said Mei, adding that normal levels of the gene are not affected by the antibiotic
"This shows that high levels of neuregulin-1 are a cause of schizophrenia, at least in mice, because when you turn them down, the behavior deficit disappears. Our data certainly suggests that we can treat this cause by bringing down excessive levels of neuregulin-1 or blocking its pathologic effects" Mei said
