Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
As the Guest Editor of Pharmaceuticals, I am happy to invite you to contribute to this Special Issue, aimed at gathering relevant and good-quality scientific information, and facilitating communication between experts in the fields of neuropsychiatry, neurophysiology and pharmacology concerning innovative therapeutical measures in neuropsychiatric disorders. The interest of the current Special Issue is mainly focused on neuropsychiatry, but we also encourage interdisciplinary approaches, as well as fundamental research, with both animal studies and patient studies being welcome. The pharmacological aspects and inter-relations between pathological mechanisms and drug response could address any neuropsychiatric disorder, as defined by the DSM-V, and any known comorbidities, including cardiovascular disorders, coagulopathies and gastrointestinal disorders (including, but not limited to microbiome–gut–brain axis impairments).
We invite authors to contribute original research papers and reviews.
Dr. Ioana-Miruna Balmus
Guest Editor
