A deeper understanding of pediatric bipolar spectrum disorders has been gained in recent years through neuroimaging and neuropsychologic testing, both of which implicate specific brain regions and functions that are distinct among children and adolescents with these disorders. Such research has led to exciting new interventions that incorporate these findings to specifically address these circuitry connections. In this session, Dr. Carbray will highlight the latest data and discuss how to integrate theoretical underpinnings of brain circuitry dysfunction into neurobiologically informed treatments for children and adolescents affected by pediatric bipolar spectrum disorders.
Developed in collaboration with the International Bipolar Foundation.
