Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
we are planning a Special Issue entitled “Well-being and Mental Health among Women” in the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health: a peer-reviewed scientific journal on the interdisciplinary area of environmental health sciences and public health. For detailed information look at https://www.mdpi.com/journal/ijerph.
In the last decade the interest on gender differences in medicine have catch more attention, both with regard to diagnosis and treatment. We know that women are more prone to develop a mental disorder during lifespan, being perinatal period one of the most susceptible. The aim of our issue is to spread the actual knowledge in the field of gender differences in mood disorders during lifespan, considering vulnerability to psychopathology linked to exogenous and endogenous factors. The identification of biomarkers could represent a modifiable risk factor providing the opportunity for improved treatment trajectories for women wellbeing, also in order to find a sex-specific psychopharmacology treatment when needed. This Special Issue is open to any idea related to gender impact on women mental health. I have listed some keywords suggesting ideas, new concepts/suggestions will be accepted.
Dr. Marta Serati
Guest Editor
