Who could benefit from this research
✓Could help
Adults with bipolar disorder (with or without a history of suicide attempts) who may participate in clinical neurobiological studies.
✕Less likely to help
Individuals not meeting study criteria or who choose not to participate may not directly benefit.
What this research studies
This grant supports a Clinical Evaluation Core that partners with several bipolar disorder projects to screen and enroll participants, ensure consistent diagnostic assessments, and manage data across studies. It uses a uniform battery of clinical instruments to explore risk factors for suicidal behavior and how these relate to neurobiological measures. The core also concentrates on methods development to improve recruitment, retention, and the quality of clinical data across live human-subject projects.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, patients could benefit from more reliable diagnostics, better understanding of risk factors for suicidality, and improved research processes that shorten the path to effective treatments.
How similar studies have gone: Previous similar cores have demonstrated strong recruitment and standardized assessments across multi-project bipolar disorder research.
