Neuroscience for Clinicians: Translational Clinical Neuroscience to Inspire Clinical Practice and Research

The goal of this chapter is to illustrate how neuroscience principles and brain circuitry can inform case formulation and communication between clinicians and patients. We provide rationale for incorporating neuroscience into clinical practice, describe brain networks relevant to psychopathology followed by how they may contribute to relevant symptom dimensions and disorders. Finally, we consider ways in which basic information about neural change in treatment can be used to inform clinical practice.
