Migration during adolescence linked to increased psychosis risk, study finds

Risk found to be highest among black and north African people, as experts call for better mental health provision

While research has previously suggested migration could play a role in the increased risk of psychosis among people from ethnic minorities, the study suggests age could be an important factor.
