This type of condition can include a range of disorders, such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorder, and mood disorders such as bipolar and major depression.
All of these share genetic and environmental risk similarities that affect brain function and cognition. At NeuRA, we believe that understanding these similarities is key to fostering positive mental health in the wider community.
Our research approaches
We take a multidisciplinary approach to understanding the stress-related neurobiology of these severe and disabling psychiatric conditions. This involves collaboration between experts in cognition, neuroimaging, genetics, and bioinformatics.
The PTSD library
To learn more about stress-related psychopathology please visit the Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder Library here. The PTSD Library provides reliable and up to date information from systematic reviews on over 200 topics relating to PTSD. The topics cover symptoms, treatments, diagnosis, risk factors, outcomes, co-occurring ‘comorbid’ conditions, epidemiology (population perspective), and the physical features of PTSD.
