Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent years, the remit and the definition of neuropsychiatry have widened considerably. In this Special Issue, we aim to capture recent research-based advances in neuropsychiatry in its broadest sense. We invite original papers, reviews, and meta-analyses on studies that cover the epidemiology, clinical aspects, and neurobiology of neuropsychiatry from bench to bedside. It will cover the brain–behaviour relationship in the context of a variety of conditions. Although not exhaustive, this list includes acquired brain injury, traumatic brain injury, epilepsy, genetic syndromes (such as Huntington’s disease), neurodevelopmental disorders (such as autism, ADHD, intellectual disabilities and Tic disorders etc.), neurodegenerative and neurocognitive disorders, neuroimmunology, neuronal networks, the neurobiology of psychiatric disorders (such as psychoses, depression, anxiety, and sleep disorders, etc.), sensory impairments, and the psychiatric aspects of various neurological disorders (such as Parkinson’s diseases, multiple sclerosis, space-occupying lesions, etc.) and functional neurological disorders, etc. Translational research may cover genetics, neuroimaging, neurobiology, neuroinflammation, neuroendocrinology, biomarkers, etc. We also welcome papers on neuropsychology, clinical trials involving pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions (such as cognitive behaviour therapy, mindfulness-based meditation, behavioural therapy, psychosocial rehabilitation, etc.), neuromodulations (such as rTMS, tDCS, vagus nerve stimulation, etc.), and neurosurgery.
