Abstract: 
In the future, suicide risk prediction and management should be transformed from psychiatrist’s judgment (mental illness-like symptoms) into modern technique-guided diagnostics and target drug therapeutics in larger clinical settings. To embrace modern scientific and technological advances, a number of unique diagnostic and therapeutic approaches must be established. This Article provides some important ideas and mechanisms proposed by translational programs.
