One in four New Zealanders will experience some form of anxiety or depressive disorder in their lifetime.<\/p>\n

Professor Paul Glue from Otago University is a finalist in this year’s KiwiNet Awards for his work in developing a drug that has been shown to help where others have failed.\u00a0<\/p>\n
With clinical trials and the approval process underway, he hopes to have the medication – a slow release form of ketamine – to market in less than three years.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Professor Glue talks to Mihingarangi about his research and not one – but two – groundbreaking discoveries.\u00a0<\/p>\n
