Over the last decade, there has been significant findings and major advances on the impact of inherent or acquired disorders, diseases or conditions affecting behavior with an emphasis on the underlying mechanisms of fundamental aspects of health and disease, from a preclinical or translational perspective.
Much of the progress is owed to the growing interest and important developments in Pathological Conditions. These advances have been fostered by improvements in research techniques that enable us to gather insights from different approaches, together with the need to better understand the field to achieve our mission to live healthy lives on a healthy planet. Key pathological conditions include but are not limited to schizophrenia, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, autism spectrum disorders, eating disorders, fatigue, neurodegenerative diseases, traumatic brain injury, epilepsy, and stroke.
Whilst the community can be proud of major advances, there is still a long way to go. In this Research Topic we encourage researchers to summarize the state of the art and the main challenges the field of Pathological Conditions is facing. We also welcome contributions that look into the future and define the directions that the field will take in the coming years. What have been the key discoveries so far? What are the most pressing matters that need to be addressed? Where is Pathological Conditions going to take us in the coming years?
This collection will serve as a basis to define the state of the art at the end of the second decade of the 21st century, and define the progress that needs to be made in the next decade. We encourage authors to contribute with review articles or perspectives. However, all article types are welcome. Manuscripts are peer-reviewed and, if accepted for publication, are subject to publishing fees, which vary depending on the article type.
