Thanks for that Mari - very interesting.

One thing which struck me is that at least some of the subjects in the study might have been anaemic (maybe as a side-effect of their psych meds, maybe for some other reason).

Because EPO enhances red blood cell production this could have led to the improved cognitive function.

However, definitely worth investigating further I think.
