Could music be offered on prescription as a treatment for depression one day? Who knows - but a team at Glasgow Caledonian University are looking into the effect of music on mood. This could lead eventually to pieces of music designed to enhance mood in particular ways. Sounds most pleasant.

Elsewhere, my colleagues on the Adult Care Blog have updates on community treatment orders and possible new treatments for Alzheimer's.

On a completely unrelated note, New Scientists reports that the laws of physics may change across the universe. Weird eh?
