Delighted to see that our @NatRevPsych review of current challenges and future opportunities for #ACEs screening is now online. Hopefully a good starting point for those who want to learn more about this topical issue!.
Mitigating risk associated with Adverse Childhood Experiences #ACEs is a key public health/clinical goal, but current practices are inadequate. How do we move on from here? Our new @NatRevPsych paper w @AlanJMeehan @NatalieSlopen & no-X others @KingsIoPPN

Finally, thanks to everyone who contributed to this work in any shape or form. As you can see from the date of the original outline, this has been a long-gestating project!. I hope it provides a useful snapshot of precision psychiatry to date, and a map of where we go from here.

Our big message: as these methods become more accessible, researchers, reviewers and editors should set more rigorous methodological standards for prediction studies. To promote real-life implementation, we should also have the clinical goals for our models in mind from the start.
