Some studies suggest that increasing numbers of children and teenagers are being diagnosed with bipolar disorder (BD). What do we know about pediatric BD? This talk will discuss the controversies and the data about pediatric BD, including data driven phenomenology and cutting-edge research. Target Audience: Physicians (psychiatrists, pediatricians, child neurologists), psychologists, social workers, other mental health clinicians and researchers, and students and trainees. Upon completion of this activity, participants will be able to (1) understand controversy surrounding pediatric BD; (2) discuss evidence-based approach to diagnosing BD; and (3) describe recent studies about brain/behavior underpinnings of pediatric BD.
