Neurology, the study of the nervous system and its disorders, intersects deeply with psychiatry. Many neurological conditions, from Parkinson’s disease to epilepsy, have psychiatric manifestations. The Journal of Clinical Psychiatry delves into this intricate relationship, exploring the psychological implications of neurological disorders and the neurological aspects of psychiatric conditions. Our expert editors curate content that bridges these two fields, ensuring that psychiatrists are equipped to understand and address the complex interplay between the brain and the mind.
