title: Collaboration in translational neuroscience: a call to arms.
abstract: Neurological and psychiatric disorders present an immediate and growing challenge. The scale and complexity of this unmet need calls for a concomitantly large and sophisticated response. Here the author discusses just one element of such a response, the power of collaboration, and presents a personal account of how a variety of collaborative structures can advance science.
