The professional listservs are the first online forums
open to professionals around the world who treat or supervise the
treatment of children and adolescents diagnosed with bipolar disorder.
The board of JBRF envisions that this rapid peer consultation service
for those on the front lines will provide an efficient vehicle for
members to learn and communicate about clinical experience, differential
diagnosis, treatment outcomes, and adverse effects to medications.
An online library search service will be available
to
supplement ongoing discussions and provide
clinicians with the latest information on new
developments in the field.
Directly linked to the development of this resource,
the foundation plans to establish a referral network for families
who are looking for guidance in finding a specialist in their local
area.
Additionally, the professional listservs will also
serve
as a referral network for JBRF-sponsored research
studies.
