Translational Neurobiology of Psychosis
We are interested in the molecular and neural basis of schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, and how the risk genes for these disorders operate. We use a range of platforms, methods, and collaborations, to carry out this work.
Psychopharmacology and Emotion Research Laboratory (PERL)
Anxiety Behaviour Behavioural models Bipolar Brain Brain function Brain imaging Cognitive Cognitive models Depression Experimental Functional imaging Mental illness Neuroimaging Neuroscience Psychology Treatment
We explore how the brain processes emotional information and how this is influenced by brain chemicals and medicines. This helps us to understand disorders such as depression and anxiety and to understand and contribute to the development of drug and psychological treatments.
Clinical Psychopharmacology
Brain imaging Depression Drug treatment Evidence Based Medicine Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Mental illness Neuroimaging Pharmacology
Our research aims to understand how psychotropic drugs work at molecular level. By exploring this through clinical research in patients we contribute to the development of new evidence-based pharmacological treatments for severe mental illness.
Neurobiology of Ageing
Alzheimer's Brain imaging Depression Whitehall Study
Why do some people suffer from depression and memory loss as they age, whereas others stay well for the whole of their lives? We examine the effect of genes and life history on ageing using neuropsychology and neuro-imaging techniques as part of large scale epidemiological and experimental medicine studies.
Neurobiology and Experimental Therapeutics
We are dedicated to testing and developing new ways of improving treatments for psychiatric disorders, and maintaining brain health during aging. A significant proportion of people suffering from disturbances of mood and memory, do not respond to the available medication, and so there is an urgency to supplement or provide an alternative to current therapies.
University of Oxford Mindfulness Research Centre
Behaviour Child development Clinical psychology Clinical trial Cognitive models Depression Evidence based treatment Mindfulness Mood Self-harm
Our work focuses on preventing depression, promoting mental health and resourcing people to meet the challenges of the next 50 years.
Oxford Brain-Body Research into Eating Disorders
Behavioural models Brain Brain function Brain imaging Clinical psychology Clinical trial Cognitive Cognitive models Dependence Experimental Functional imaging Information processing Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Magnetoencephalography (MEG) Mindfulness Mood Neuroimaging Neuroscience Nutrition Psychological treatment development and evaluation Psychopathology Research-based Treatment Treatment trials
We work to understand the cognitive, biological, emotional and somatic processes underpinning the severe eating disorder Anorexia Nervosa in particular, and Eating Disorders in general. Our trans-disciplinary research, involving clinicians and neuroscientists, aims to translate research findings into novel treatment strategies.
