Journal Descriptions

The Lancet Psychiatry is an authoritative forum for key opinion leaders across medicine, government, and health systems to influence clinical practice, explore global policy, and inform constructive, positive change worldwide. The journal publishes clinical research, expert reviews, and provocative comment and opinion in mental health, providing a clear, independent perspective about the clinical advances and practice-changing research shaping clinical psychiatry. The Lancet Psychiatry publishes papers that reflect the rich variety of ongoing clinical research, including psychopharmacology, psychotherapy and psychosocial approaches to all psychiatric disorders, across the life course. The journal covers innovative treatments and the biological research underpinning such developments, novel methods of service delivery, and new ways of thinking about mental illness promoted by social psychiatry. The journal also advocates strongly for the rights of people with mental health disorders and highlights the voices of service users.
