Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Personalized therapy in clinical psychiatry has emerged as a transformative approach to mental health care, driven by advances in genomics, neuroimaging, and digital health technologies. Historically, psychiatric treatment relied on standardized protocols, but the recognition of individual variability in genetic, biological, and environmental factors has shifted the paradigm toward tailored interventions. This call for papers invites submissions for a Special Issue focused on advancing personalized therapy in clinical psychiatry. We aim to explore innovative strategies that enhance treatment efficacy and patient outcomes through individualized approaches. The scope of this issue includes, but is not limited to, cutting-edge research in pharmacogenomics, biomarker-driven therapies, machine learning applications for treatment prediction, and digital phenotyping for real-time monitoring.

We solicit original research articles and reviews that address novel methodologies, clinical trials, ethical considerations, or implementation challenges in personalized psychiatric care. Submissions should contribute to the growing evidence base for precision psychiatry and its potential to revolutionize mental health treatment.

Dr. Georgios Floros
