... The goal of the workshop is to present promising current and emerging technologies with potential as reliable glutamate biomarkers, and to outline strategies to accelerate development, validation, and implementation of these biomarkers as powerful tools to advance drug development for nervous system disorders associated with glutamatergic dysfunction. Meeting Objectives: • B riefly outline the need for glutamate-related biomarkers both for understanding the causes of neuropsychiatric disorders and neuro degenerative diseases associated with glutamatergic dysfunction, and for accelerating drug development for these disorders.
