We are in the second decade following the “Decade of the Brain,” which Congress designated to describe the national research focus for the 1990s. President George H.W. Bush proclaimed at the time: “A new era of discovery is dawning in brain research.”

The research has continued at a rapid pace since the close of the century. Starting in 2010, a full decade after the Decade of the Brain officially ended, researchers, scientists, and mental health professionals produced a flurry of retrospectives to assess and speculate about what new knowledge had been revealed during the last 10 years.
