Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) first appeared in late 2019 and its rapid spread around the world has killed hundreds of thousands of people, infected many more, and triggered historic quarantine measures to keep vulnerable people safe. On March 11, 2020, the Director-General of the World Health Organization finally announced that the COVID-19 epidemic was to be considered a pandemic.

The COVID-19 pandemic has caused major lifestyle changes throughout society worldwide, and its impact on psychiatric care is no exception. In fact, the digitalization of medical care, including telemedicine, which had been severely restricted by various regulations and conservative ideas in the past, is now experiencing a period of change, as social legitimacy and rationality are now assured after the COVID-19 pandemic.

For this Special Issue in Psychiatry International, we are looking for submissions regarding the following topics in relation to the digitalization of psychiatric care: 1) biological research, 2) IT development research, 3) database development research, and 4) epidemiological research. We will accept a wide range of paper formats, from original research, methodology papers, commentaries, and review papers.

As of summer 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic is having a major impact on our daily lives on a global scale, forcing us to change to the new normal. However, the effects are not only detrimental to our present socioeconomic conditions but also have the risk of having negative biological effects on our descendants. Of concern is the effect of maternal immune activation following maternal infection with COVID-19 on the fetus’ cerebral nervous system. While we are currently occupied with countering the imminent threats in front of us, we also need to take steps from a public health perspective to reduce the impact of maternal infection on the fetus, especially the risk of neurodevelopmental disorders. However, such a risk can be prevented and managed through the digital transformation of the nation’s health data and the strategic application of sophisticated data science approaches to those big data.
