Neural Sciences
The Human Brain Is Responsible For Cognitive Abilities, Emotions, And
Behaviors. During The \"Decade Of The Brain\" In The 1990s, Major
Advances In Neural Sciences Took Place, And The Brain Was Finally
Recognized As The Biological Substrate For All Normal And Abnormal
Mental Functions. It Is Possible To Conceive A Biologically Based
Diagnostic System For Psychiatric Disorders. This Approach Will Also Permit
And Advance Brain Oriented Investigational Efforts To Produce Better
Psychiatric Treatments And, Thus, Improve The Quality Of Care Of
Psychiatric Patients. In Most Fields Of Medicine, Diagnoses Are Based On
Physical Signs, Symptoms, A Comprehensive Medical History, And Laboratory,
Radiological, And Other Relevant Tests And Procedures. In Psychiatry,
However, The Diagnoses Are Based Primarily On The Clinical Impression Of
The Patient's Interpretation Of His Or Her Thoughts And Feelings.
If The Brain Is The Site Of Focus For Psychiatric Disorders, One Should
Attempt To Develop A Classification System On The Understanding Of
Biological Factors Rather Than Primarily Patient's Symptoms. Neural
Sciences Focus Primarily On Brain Biology. It Is, Therefore, Essential That
One Start To Focus More Intensively On The Functions Of The Brain From
A Mental Illness Viewpoint.
Besides Understanding The Functions And Dysfunctions Of Lobal Regions,
Basal Ganglia, Limbic Structures, Hypothalamus, And Other Relevant Areas
Of The Brain, One Should Understand The Ultra Structure Of Individual
Brain Cells. Of Further Importance Are The Synaptic Connectivity And The
Functional Organization Of The Brain, As Well As The Behavioral
Consequences Of Pathological Processes That Take Place In The Central
Nervous System (CNS). At The Same Time, The Role Of Genetics Is Very
Relevant In This Regard; Particularly, Insofar As Psychiatric
Disorders Are Concerned. Thus, Knowledge About Gene Expression, DNA
Replication, Messenger RNA Synthesis And Translation Into Protein, As Well As
The Outcomes Of Mutations At Each Of These Stages Are Quite Relevant In This
Context.
Knowledge Of Clinical Psychopharmacology Is Essential, Including
Neurotransmitters, Brain Location Of The Biogenic Amine Neurotransmitter Nuclei,
And The Distribution
Of The Axonal Projections. The Roles Of Glutamate, [Gamma]-Aminobutiric Acid
(GABA), Monoamine Neurotransmitters, Such As Serotonin, Dopamine,
Norepinephrine, Epinephrine, Histamine, And Acetylcholine, As Well As The Peptide
Neurotransmitters Such As Endorphins And Enkephalins, Are All Crucial To The
Understanding Of The
Use Of Psychopharmacological Agents.
Also Of Crucial Importance Is The Knowledge Of The Major Neuroimaging
Techniques, As Well As The Clinical Limitations Of These Neuroimaging
Techniques. They
Include Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), Computed Tomography (CT), Magnetic

(SPECT), Proton Emission Tomography (PET), Electroencephalography (EEG), And
Magnetoencephalography (MEG), As Well As Others.
Without Question, Medical Students And Psychiatric Physicians Need To Be
Familiar And Have Knowledge About The Field Of Neuroscience. The
Following Questions And Answers Will Permit Them To Assess Their
Knowledge In This Regard.
