Description
People diagnosed with a severe mental illness like bipolar disorder do not benefit equally from enhanced healthcare and life expectancy improvement compared to the general population. With my plenary lecture on "aging with bipolar disorder: cognitive and somatic comorbidities" at the conference of International Society for Bipolar Disorders in Iceland it was underscored that there is an urgent need for intergrated care. See gage-bd.org for more information about our global studies on aging with bipolar disorder.
