Author(s): Martin Hollis*
Neuropsychopharmacology, an interdisciplinary field of study connected to basic neuroscience and psychopharmacology of how medications affect the mind, is the study of the brain pathways that pharmaceuticals work upon to alter behavior. It entails researching the mechanisms of neuropathology, the pharmacodynamics of medication action, mental illness, and states of consciousness.
