Robert Kolker Quote: “The normal brain learns from what it perceives. It doesn’t have to start from zero if it hears the same thing twice. People with schizophrenia, however, couldn’t manage that.

Robert Kolker Quote: “What would progress look like for schizophrenia? If the Galvin boys had been born a half century later or more – growing up today, let’s say, and not in the 1950s or 1960s – would their treatment be any different now?
