Optimizing pharmacological treatment for mood disorders and schizophrenia by:
1) taking into account gene-drug pairs affecting medication plasma levels, response and adverse effects with psychotropic medications (pharmacogenomics)
2) developing and implementing pharmacogenetic based algorithms in clinical practice (see Pharmacogenetic Research Clinic at CAMH, https://PGxRC.ca)
3) investigating the causal role of the gut-brain axis of medication effects and testing interventions with probiotics to alleviate mood symptoms
