This book presents the latest research in computational methods for modeling and simulating
brain disorders. In particular it shows how mathematical models can be used to study the
relationship between a given disorder and the specific brain structure associated with that
disorder. It also describes the emerging field of computational psychiatry including the study
of pathological behavior due to impaired functional connectivity pathophysiological activity
and or aberrant decision-making. Further it discusses the data analysis techniques that will
be required to analyze the increasing amount of data being generated about the brain. Lastly
the book offers some tips on the application of computational models in the field of
quantitative systems pharmacology. Mainly written for computational scientists eager to
discover new application fields for their model this book also benefits neurologists and
psychiatrists wanting to learn about new methods.
