These disorders are strongly genetically intercorrelated, and exhibit pronounced clinical overlap, suggesting that they are different manifestations of a shared underlying neurobiology, along a spectrum. However, the neurobiological mechanisms and pathophysiology of these disorders are still poorly understood, limiting effective drug discovery. There is an urgent need for new models for drug testing, as animal models have major limitations, and current psychiatric organoids systems are dependent on patient derived stem cells, in which…
