Hommage to a psychiatric hero

Let´s start by paying hommage to a man that has meant more than anyone to psychiatry during the past 25 years. Lars Mårtensson M.D. ! (R.I.P. Lars.) It was he who started the debate about neuroleptic drugs in Sweden. (possibly in the WORLD.) With his 3 historic articles in Dagens Nyheter in Aug 1985. He risked (and lost) his position as a very renowned DNA-scientist for our sake. To do his groundbreaking (and courageous) research. Eivin and Sunniva. If you should read this. Be proud of your father! He would have merited the Nobel Prize! (and without him I wouldn´t be alive today.)
