Neurotranslational Article Repository
This repository contains articles relevant to how cognitive neuroscience can inform clinical practice. Articles in the first section are explicitly written for clinician audiences. Articles in the second section are more along the lines of academic background which could, for the sufficiently interested clinician, or with translational collaboration, eventually inform clinical practice. Note that review articles and meta-analyses are color-coded in blue. If you have any other articles that you would like added to this repository, please send us the citation(s) in an email to nttrsig@gmail.com with 'Repository Articles' in the subject line. The repository can also be viewed as a google doc here.
