This unit of study introduces the principal disorders of mental health and current methods for diagnosing and understanding them. Disorders of development, mood, personality and cognitive decline will be introduced from the perspective of clinical staging and in the context of other diagnostic criteria. The unit will also describe fundamental principles of clinicopathology and provides and overview of the latest technologies and techniques being utilised at the Brain and Mind Centre to identify early diagnostic biomarkers for disease. Through biomarker identification and development, windows for therapeutic intervention that can prevent or delay progression from earlier to later stages of a disorder can be defined, and the effectiveness of early intervention strategies can be evaluated.
