Abstract: The allied fields of neuropsychology and neuroepidemiology have emerged as rapidly developing areas of study, research and practice. Having a shorter history than other medical disciplines, the two fields have nevertheless witnessed unprecedented technological development, growth and awareness of the diseases under their purview. There are key areas of focus which must be harnessed for a more interdisciplinary and holistic development of the two fields, to better integrate with other areas of public policy and acknowledge the inevitable sociopolitical dimensions of disease spread and treatment. Rehabilitation and improving quality of life have also emerged as key areas of focus. This paper aims to shed light on the intersection of the two fields, provide an overview of their history, and analyze current trends as well as prominent critiques of existing methods. The paper further aims to chart a course for future arenas of research, emphasizing upon the need for collaboration across disciplines and producing culturally conscious and ecologically valid studies to improve generalizability.
