Summary

The primary aim of this project is to understand whether it is possible to reduce medical risk factors in adults with bipolar disorder and, in doing so, to improve psychiatric and functional outcomes. We will examine the role of behavioral risk factors and presumed behavioral mediators and moderators of health risk in individuals suffering from bipolar I disorder. The investigators will employ an innovative behavioral intervention with guideline based psychiatric care ( Integrated Risk Reduction Intervention - IRRI) in order to target modifiable medical risk factors.
