Scope

We publish original research, reviews, and personal views, as well as timely news and comment about all aspects of psychiatry. Topics considered by the journal include psychopharmacology, psychotherapy, and psychosocial approaches to all psychiatric disorders, across the life course. The journal covers innovative treatments and the biological research underpinning such developments, novel methods of service delivery, and new ways of thinking about mental illness promoted by social psychiatry. The journal also advocates strongly for the rights of people with mental illnesses, and welcome the voices of service users.
