http://neuroscience.msu.edu

An MSU researcher is part of a team that’s been looking at a possible link between Vitamin D deficiency and suicide attempts. The research was published this fall in the journal “Psychoneuroendocrinology.”Current State’s Melissa Benmark speaks with Dr. Lena Brundin about the study. She’s an associate professor of psychiatry and behavioral medicine at MSU.

Suicide prevention help can be found locally at The Listening Ear or by calling the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline.
