The American Neuropsychiatric Association (ANPA), established in 1988, is an organization of professionals in neuropsychiatry and clinical neurosciences dedicated to understanding the links between neuroscience and behavior, and to developing effective diagnosis and treatment for patients with neuropsychiatric disorders. Our mission is to apply neuroscience for the benefit of people. We work together in a collegial and interdisciplinary fashion to: advance knowledge of brain-behavior relations; provide a forum for learning; and promote excellent, scientific and compassionate patient care. The interdisciplinary nature of the membership encourages collaborations in research presentations, symposia, workshops and/or continuing education courses. Students, fellows and other trainees are encouraged to participate and are offered discount membership and conference fees. The Journal of Neuropsychiatry and Clinical Neurosciences is the official publication of the organization, and is a benefit of membership.
