Recent studies suggest that individuals who stay up late and wake up late, commonly referred to as "night owls," may be at a higher risk for depression and anxiety.

An international team has identified associations between modifications in the placenta and the risk of developing schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and major depression disorder. The study, which involved 28 researchers from 18 institutions across Europe and the United States, highlights the placenta as a key element in neuropsychiatric development. The research has demonstrated that specific epigenetic modifications in the placenta, particularly DNA methylation, can influence the expression of genes associated with psychiatric disorders. These findings suggest that genetic risk may already manifest during the prenatal stage.
