Neumora Accused of Misleading MDD Trial Results

A complaint has been filed against Neumora, alleging that the company made false statements about its flagship therapeutic candidate Navacaprant in treating Major Depressive Disorder (MDD). The complaint claims that Neumora amended the inclusion criteria for a Phase Two trial to include patients with moderate to severe MDD and added a prespecified analysis to focus on this population. Additionally, it is alleged that the Phase Two trials lacked sufficient data, particularly regarding patient demographics, which may have impacted the accuracy of results.

Trump Derangement Syndrome Spikes in Second Term

Dr. Holly Schiff, a psychiatrist, believes Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) has become more common and intense during Trump's second term, with patients arriving emotionally unstable due to their hatred towards him. This condition is characterized by an inability to distinguish between legitimate policy differences and signs of psychic pathology in the president's behavior. Dr. Carole Lieberman, a conservative figure, also recognizes TDS as a real psychological condition, noting that current patients are more decompensated and unable to control their emotions compared to those during Trump's first term.

Alcohol-Fueled Tensions Spark Violence in Antarctica Camp

A violent outburst occurred during an expedition in Antarctica, but officials have not confirmed if van Tonder or Ghazi were involved. The incident does not appear to be related to drinking, despite team members taking photos with alcohol. However, a conversation between Monahon and Holly Newman from PAE revealed long-standing issues with alcohol-related problems causing harm to others in Antarctica prior to 2015. Wes Thurmann, a fire department supervisor, also mentioned that the NSF often blamed incidents of sexual harassment on alcohol. As a result, South African officials have launched a longer-term professional counselling service to repair relationships at Sanae IV, where eight team members will be forced to live with one of the accused for another nine months.
