Research
The NIHR Maudsley Biomedical Research Centre (BRC) carries out translational research in mental health and neurology. Our aim is to accelerate the translation of the latest scientific discoveries into first-in-person clinical trials and other well-designed studies.
By bringing together scientists and clinicians from different disciplines, these findings can then be evaluated, developed and implemented in the NHS, providing new tests and treatments for people with mental health conditions and neurological disorders.
Research themes 2022-2027
Research at the NIHR Maudsley BRC is organised into nine themes:
Child Mental Health & Neurodevelopmental Disorders
We address mental health and neurodevelopmental conditions in childhood and adolescence.
Digital Therapies
We are accelerating the development, precision of, and implementation of novel digital therapeutics.
Eating Disorders and Obesity
We are developing our early interventions and new therapies to be tailored and scalable.
Experimental Medicine and Therapeutics
This theme is advancing experimental therapeutics with multiple endpoints.
Informatics
Our theme in informatics integrates rich clinical data with large datasets to better understand psychiatric disorders.
Neuroimaging
We investigate brain structure, function, physiology and metabolism across psychiatric and neurological disorders.
Pain and Addictions
We use expertise from different specialities to enable a mind-body approach to lessening negative impacts in pain and addictions.
Psychosis and Mood Disorders
Our theme aims to transform the future of people suffering with psychosis and mood disorders.
Trials, Prediction and Genomics
We aim to deliver a step-change in patient-centred, data-driven mental health research at scale.
