International Clinical Psychopharmacology, 2007

Although we look hopefully to the incipient contributions of new technologies (genomics, proteomics, and neuroimaging), detection of the disorder continues to be primarily based on the clinical presentation, i.e., on the descriptive psychopathology. For many years, the distinction between bipolar disorder and schizophrenia was an area of great difficulty, but changes in diagnostic criteria have shifted interest to early differentiation between unipolar and bipolar depression and between the different entities of the bipolar spectrum. In addition, the peculiarities of the presentation of bipolar disorder in special cases (children and adolescents, pregnancy and postpartum, and the elderly), and the high comorbidity, especially with impulsivity disorders, make the diagnostic process a complicated task requiring conceptual clarification.

Thank you both very much. I would also like to thank my brothers Pedro Villagrán Jr. and Rene Villagrán who have consistently allowed their overly talkative little brother to share and develop his ideas with them. I appreciate you both endlessly. Finally, I would like to acknowledge my fiancée Elizabeth Hunt whose support has kept me focused throughout graduate school. I could not have done it without you.
