Session Summary

Prior to the presentation, lunch will be served from 11:15-11:30 AM Eastern. The program should begin right at 11:30 AM Eastern; however, small delays are possible due to the meal. We thank you in advance for your patience.

Currently approved drugs for schizophrenia have proven useful; however, unmet medical needs still exist for this patient population. This program will shed light on an evolving class of investigational therapeutics that have shown great promise in schizophrenia by targeting muscarinic acetylcholine receptors in the brain.
