期刊介绍:
Es la Publicación Oficial de la Sociedad Española de Psiquiatría Biológica. Los recientes avances en el conocimiento de la bioquímica y de la fisiología cerebrales y el progreso en general en el campo de las neurociencias han abierto el camino al desarrollo de la psiquiatría biológica, fundada sobre bases anatomofisiológicas, más sólidas y científicas que la psiquiatría tradicional.
