This report from Raji and colleagues at UCLA marks the inauguration of a new feature
in the Journal: intensive case studies that exemplify either the novel application
of cutting edge methodology to diagnostic assessment and/or the use of intervention
research to advance the treatment of older adults with mental disorders. In both instances
the intent of this series is to illustrate the bridging of science and clinical service
in novel, exciting, and informative ways. I have invited Jordan Karp, M.D., to serve
as the editor for this series. In the months to come you can anticipate some extremely
interesting and scholarly case presentations that enact the best of our science at
the bedside.
