Research in Mental Health and Clinical Neuroscience

We address key areas relevant to clinical neurosciences using a spectrum of methods. This includes embracing basic science, translational and experimental medicine, and clinical research including large randomised trials.

We conduct high quality research that:

  • enhances our understanding of the causes, mechanisms and treatment of mental disorder and criminal offending across the lifespan
  • promotes individual and organisational health and wellbeing
  • improves policies, systems and the delivery of services in order to achieve these goals.

Much of this work is embedded in the NHS, particularly ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½shire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust and the ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ University Hospitals NHS Trust. We bring cutting-edge clinical care to our patients and clinical relevance to our research and teaching.
