Integrative Neuroscience and Personalized Medicine Summary

Integrative Neuroscience and Personalized Medicine by Evian Gordon, MD, PhD (The Brain Resource Company, The Brain Resource Company)

This book takes an in depth and hard look at the current status and future direction of treatment predictive markers in Personalized Medicine for the brain from the perspectives of the researchers on the cutting edge and those involved in healthcare implementation. The contents provide a comprehensive text suitable as both a pithy introduction to and a clear summary of the "science to solutions" continuum in this developing field of Personalized Medicine and Integrative Neuroscience. The science includes both measures of genes using whole genome approaches and SNIPS as well as BRAINmarkers of direct brain function such as brain imaging, biophysical changes and objective cognitive and behavioral measurements. Personalized Medicine for Brain Disorders will soon be a reality using the comprehensive quantitative and standardized approaches to genomics, BRAINmarkers and cognitive function. Each chapter provides a review of recent relevant literature; show the solutions achieved through integrative neuroscience and applications in patient care thus providing a practical guide to the reader. The timeliness of this book's content is propitious providing bottom line information to educate practicing clinicians, health care workers and researchers, and also a pathway for undergraduate and graduates interested in further their understanding of and involvement in tailored personal solutions.

Integrative Neuroscience and Personalized Medicine Reviews

"The way we currently treat patients in all areas of medicine leaves much to be desired. We identify clusters of symptoms in a descriptive manner, give those clusters a label that best fits, or several labels if none fits well, and then we administer drugs that were themselves, or their predecessors, discovered by serendipity over fifty years ago... This type of current standard of care is no longer acceptable. We need to bring the neuroscience discoveries of the last fifty years to health care and that must be done in a personalized way, matching each patient to the best treatment that is specifically individualized for that person. Gordon & Koslow bring together in an exemplary and much needed bookELthe standards for the new science and evidence-based personalized medicine of the future that has been much expected and is finally taking off." -- Julio Licinio, MD, Director, John Curtin School of Medical Research, CMBE, Australian National University, Canberra, Australia "This is an excellent new book about the future of medicine, and psychiatry in particular. All those interested in the future of psychiatry should read this book." --Doody's "The contents provide a comprehensive text suitable as both a pithy introduction to and a clear summary of the 'science to solutions' continuum in this developing field of Personalized Medicine and Integrative Neuroscience. The timeliness of this book's content is propitious providing bottom line information to educate practicing clinicians, health care workers and researchers, and also a pathway for undergraduate and graduates interested in further their understanding of and involvement in tailored personal solutions." -- Anticancer Research "The editors have assembled a stellar group of academia and industry neuroscience contributors from the United States, Australia, Israel, and the United Kingdom...The chapter on schizophrenia is particularly comprehensive." -- Mauricio Tohen, M.D., Dr. PH, M.B.A, San Antonio, Texas "The editors have assembled a stellar group of academia and industry neuroscience contributors from the United States, Australia, Israel, and the United Kingdom...The goal of the volume is to update the reader on the concept of personalized medicine and to support the idea that a better understanding of the genomic regulation and other biomakers of mental disorders will lead to improved diagnoses and treatments." -- Mauricio Tohen, M.D., Dr.PH., MBA, The American Journal of Psychiatry

About Evian Gordon, MD, PhD (The Brain Resource Company, The Brain Resource Company)

Dr. Stephen H. Koslow has been an innovator and creative leader in the fields of psychopharmacology, neuroscience and informatics. He has joined efforts in all these fields by now helping to catalyze Personalized Medicine into a reality. He continues to run his own consulting company, and his efforts in Neuroinformatics, and special interest in the clinical areas of mental illness. He had worked for many years at the National Institutes of Mental Health (NIH) where he had a major leadership role in these same areas. Dr. Evian Gordon is Adjunct Associate Professor of Psychiatry at Sydney Medical School, University of Sydney. He is also the founding Director of the Brain Dynamic Centre (BDC), and heads BDC's Integrative Neuroscience Program. He is also the CEO of Brain Resource, a publicly listed biotech Company, which developed out of BDC in 2001, and is now the industry affiliate of BDC. He is a pioneer of 'intergrative neuroscience' and has over 25 years in bringing together complementary human brain imaging technologies. With his experience he has established the first fully standardized international database on the human brain, under the auspices of Brain Resource. He has over 350 peer-reviewed publications and has produced a 14-part television series on models of the human brain.
