31| Biomarkers of Accelerated Aging in Severe Mental Illness – A Conversation With Dr. Lisa Eyler (Part 1)

1 Nov 2019 · 1 h 00 min

Severe mental illness (SMI) refers to mental disorders that result in significant functional impairment (e.g., schizophrenia and bipolar disorder). In this episode, we bring you Part 1 of our conversation with Lisa Eyler, Ph.D., about inflammation in individuals with SMI, how inflammation is associated with accelerated aging and other health problems, and the clinical utility of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) in this population. We also contrast the approaches of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders - Fifth Edition (DSM-5) and the Research Domain Criteria (RDoC).
