Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Psychiatric disorders represent a major challenge to global public health, with complex etiologies that involve intricate interactions between genetic, environmental, and neurological factors. This Special Issue, "Advanced Research on Psychiatric Disorders", aims to highlight cutting-edge developments in understanding, diagnosing, and treating psychiatric illnesses. We welcome contributions that explore the biological underpinnings of psychiatric disorders, particularly studies examining their correlations with neurodegenerative and neurological diseases.
In addition, this Special Issue seeks to showcase innovative applications of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning in psychiatric research, including predictive modeling, biomarker discovery, and personalized treatment strategies. Studies employing animal experiments to elucidate disease mechanisms, therapeutic responses, or novel intervention strategies are highly encouraged. Genetic studies that uncover risk factors, molecular mechanisms, and potential therapeutic targets are also of great interest. We especially welcome translational medicine research that bridges experimental findings to clinical applications, aiming to accelerate the development of effective treatments. Multimodal approaches integrating neuroimaging, genomics, clinical data, and computational methods will be of particular interest.
By gathering diverse methodologies and interdisciplinary perspectives, this Special Issue aims to advance our understanding of psychiatric disorders and open new avenues for early diagnosis, intervention, and personalized care. We invite researchers from psychiatry, neuroscience, bioinformatics, genetics, translational medicine, and personalized medicine to contribute original research articles, reviews, and perspectives to this timely and impactful collection.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Biomedicines is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
