Case Reports in Psychiatry 2026: Neurostimulation

Frontiers in Psychiatry is proud to present our Case Reports series. Our case reports aim to highlight unique cases focused on advancing the understanding of neuropsychiatric diseases and their treatments.

We welcome submissions exploring cognitive neuroscience, social neuroscience, clinical psychiatry, neurology, and neuropsychiatry, which connect the dynamic interplay among brain regions to understand cognitive, emotional, or behavioral regulation.

Case reports provide insight into the differential diagnosis, decision-making, and clinical management of unusual cases and are a valuable educational tool.

This Research Topic will only accept Case Reports or Community Case Studies, but also relevant Opinions and Perspectives may be considered. All manuscripts must be original with the aim to significantly advance the field to be considered.
