What advancements in clinical neurosciences need to occur in the next 10 years?

Abstract

As modern science progresses so too must clinical neuroscience for the betterment of suffering individuals. From the inception of clinical neuroscience, scientific breakthroughs have enhanced our knowledge of how certain pathologies impair the function of the nervous system. Clinical neuroscience now plays a pivotal role when informing the scientific community about the developments in diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment of neurological disorders. The prevalence and morbidity associated with Fibromyalgia, Glioblastoma multiforme and, Alzheimer’s disease warrants extensive research to develop treatments that improve patients’ quality of life and reduce the financial burden on healthcare services worldwide. Significant progress has been made in clinical neuroscience within the past decade, yet with the exponential evolution of technology, researchers and clinicians must endeavour to transcend the current frontiers of knowledge on the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of neurological disorders.
