Brendan Sargent

I am a Clinical Research Fellow with the Autoimmune Psychosis Group, working alongside the Psychoimmunology and SINAPPS teams.

I am supporting the SINAPPS2 and PPIP2 studies, which aim to establish the prevalence of antibody mediated psychosis, and whether immunological treatments might lead to better outcomes for these patients. 

My role also involves working with colleagues across the Department of Psychiatry, Nuffield Department of Clinical Neuroscience, and the Wellcome Center for Integrative Neuroimaging, to explore neuroimaging methods applied to neuropsychiatric contexts such as in autoimmune psychosis and cognitive decline.

I am an honorary clinical fellow with the University of Liverpool, and work with the COVID-CNS study to explore the effects of infectious diseases on the central nervous system and cognition.
