Welcome to The Barrier Breakdown: Disrupting Mental Health!
Sometimes it seems like social media makes you crazy, but what if analyzing user data actually gave us indications that someone was experiencing the early stages of psychosis? That's the question that our guest this week, Dr. Michael Birnbaum, wants to answer!
Dr. Birnbaum is an attending physician for New York's Zucker Hillside Hospital and the program director for Northwell Health's early treatment program—a clinical and research initiative for adolescents and young adults in the early stages of psychosis. His research aims to develop methods of identifying and diagnosing the onset of psychosis through the avenues of social media and the internet at large. This effort combines the use of both text and images to give an early-warning, which a clinician can then use to narrow down or even dismiss their diagnosis.
