Researcher Philip Seeman shed new light on biology of schizophrenia
Mary and Philip Seeman. Molecular neuropharmacologist Philip Seeman transformed medical science’s understanding of schizophrenia and other brain conditions. He discovered the importance of the dopamine D2 receptor in 1974, showing that the schizophrenia drugs of that era — which were widely used but poorly understood — targeted this brain receptor. As a professor in the Department of Pharmacology and Department of Psychiatry at the University of Toronto, Dr. Seeman also discovered that antipsychotics that did not linger for long on the D2 dopamine receptor caused fewer side effects. In the 1990s, he cloned the D2 dopamine receptor. His later research revealed that smaller doses of antipsychotics could effectively treat schizophrenia. Courtesy of the Family
