Mental Health

Researching mental health across the life course

Pioneering solutions for positive mental health through collaboration and innovation

Mental Health Health Topics

From schizophrenia and bipolar disorder to wellbeing and resilience, our research is centred on the biological, psychological and social factors that influence our mental health.

Anxiety

Our research is focused on understanding the genetic, environmental and personality traits that contribute to anxiety in order to inform more accurate diagnoses and treatments.

Autism

We conduct multidisciplinary research to better understand autism spectrum disorder and unlock novel therapeutic strategies for individuals affected.

Binge drinking

Our research aims to understand the impact of binge drinking on the brain, particularly in young adults.

Bipolar disorder

Bipolar disorder is a serious mental health condition that’s often characterised by extreme mood swings. Although its cause remains relatively unknown, our research looks at the role that genes play in how the disorder develops and how it is inherited.

Depression

Affecting one in seven Australians, depression is a serious mood disorder that affects both mental and physical health. We hope to understand the gene-brain connection that contributes to depression symptoms in order to inform better treatments.

Resilience

We all respond differently to life-changing situations. Our research is dedicated to understanding why these differences exist, including the environmental, psychological and behavioural factors that contribute to resilience in a person.

Schizophrenia

Our research is focused on understanding the underlying causes of schizophrenia and finding new treatments that not only improve symptoms but ultimately, improve quality of life for people affected.

Stress-related psychopathology

Psychotic disorders and mood disorders share genetic and environmental risk similarities that affect brain function and cognition. We believe that understanding these similarities is key to improving how to promote positive mental health.
