In keeping with the focus of this class, the emphasis of your paper should be on the neuroscience aspects of the disorder you selected. In your paper, please be sure that the following aspects of your topic are discussed:

Explain the theories of etiology (causes) with a focus on the neurobiology of the disorder.

Explain associated factors in the development of the disorder (genetic, environmental, familial, lifestyle).

Describe the pathology of the disorder with an emphasis on the abnormalities of nervous system structure and function, including any genetic and biochemical aspects.

Give examples of treatment options, including both drug (pharmacological) and non-drug (nonpharmacological treatments), with rationales for use of these treatments based on current understanding of the neurobiology of the disorder.

Summarize diagnostic and research technologies employed in clinical diagnosis, clinical and behavioral health care, and basic science research.
