Research Studies

If you're a patient or use our services in some way, you could be part of a research study. We conduct research into many areas of mental and physical health.

 

These include, but are not limited to - psychosis, diabetes, stroke, anxiety/depression, dementia and long-term neurological conditions. 

Research studies that are currently open or recruiting

Each study is different and will require you to do different things, depending on what is being investigated; some might ask you to fill in a questionnaire, while others might offer alternative treatments for your condition or require you to provide a clinical sample (such as a blood test).

You can find our current studies below. If you are interested in being part of a study or wish to discover what is coming up, please contact us.
