ABCT Bipolar SIG
Welcome! This is the Wiki home page for the Bipolar Special Interest Group. We are a special interest group of the Association for Behavioral and Cognitive Therapies.
The Bipolar Disorders SIG welcomes members who are focused on the etiology and treatment of bipolar spectrum disorders. The members cover the developmental course of bipolar disorder, from juvenile to adult bipolar disorder, and span interests in assessment, clinical description, culture, outcomes, risk factors, and treatment models. This SIG has a particular investment in providing a nurturing atmosphere for idea exchange, and a forum to help promote the development of junior scientists.
Here is a link to GoogleDoc notepad for rapid updating (during meetings, etc.).
