A New Era of Precision Neuromodulation in Psychiatry
Over the past century, advances in neuroimaging and cognitive neuroscience reshaped how we understand psychiatric disorders, expanding the portfolio of evidence-based treatments while routine clinical practice has mostly relied on trial and error. Precision medicine has steadily extended to psychiatry, and today we can target specific cortical or subcortical brain regions within defined pathological circuits […]
