Functional Brain Dysconnectivity: A key to understanding mood and psychotic disorders?

Mood and psychotic disorders affect millions of people worldwide, profoundly impacting patients' quality of life. Despite advances in treatment, the underlying biological mechanisms remain largely misunderstood, posing significant challenges for clinical management. However, a central concept has emerged to link these conditions: functional brain dysconnectivity, a disruption in the interactions between brain regions. Studying these anomalies could pave the way for a better understanding of psychiatric disorders.
