The charge of this workgroup is to characterize emerging transdiagnostic dimensions by considering the interface between quantitative structural models of psychopathology dimensions (i.e., HiTOP) and approaches that begin with neurobiology. The workgroup aims to identify points of convergence and to more clearly articulate the transdiagnostic phenotypic and clinical endpoints of neurobiological variation. It also aims to facilitate identification of neural liability for, and expression of, various forms of psychopathology, as well as identification of models for relating neurobiological systems to clinical research and practice. The scope is not limited to research on humans, also providing an avenue through which nonhuman animal research can intersect with and inform HiTOP.
