Our group have discovered that low vitamin D (the sunshine hormone) during early life alters brain development. Recently we completed the first study to examine vitamin D in stored blood samples from new born babies and examined their risk of later schizophrenia. This study, based on Danish samples, confirmed a significant relationship between vitamin D levels and risk of later schizophrenia. The current study will examine new samples from Denmark and Scotland in order to replicate this association.

我们团队发现，生命早期缺乏维生素D(阳光荷尔蒙)会改变大脑发育。最近，我们完成了第一项研究，检测新生儿储存的血液样本中的维生素D，并检测他们日后患精神分裂症的风险。这项基于丹麦样本的研究证实，维生素D水平与后来患精神分裂症的风险之间存在显著关系。目前的研究将检查来自丹麦和苏格兰的新样本，以复制这种联系。
