Research into the Regeneration of the Human Brain and Mind
Head of Discipline: Professor Bernhard Baune
Deputy Head of Discipline: Professor Cherrie Galletly
Psychiatry at the University of Adelaide is committed to excellence in research, teaching, and clinical practice.
The Discipline coordinates a five-campus program incorporating the Royal Adelaide Hospital, the Queen Elizabeth Hospital, the Women's and Children's Hospital, the Adelaide Clinic, and; the Lyell McEwin Health Service.
Psychiatric research at The University of Adelaide is focused on Regenerational Psychiatry. Our goal is to undertake research that ultimately leads to improved mental and physical health in individuals affected by Psychiatric Disorders through enhancing our knowledge and application of the regeneration processes of the human brain and mind.
Taking a triarchic approach, our research investigates the structures, systems, and functions of the biological, cognitive, emotional, behavioural, and environmental mediators of psychiatric disorders and their potential for recovery.
We do this through inter-related, multi-disciplined research groups by undertaking hypothesis-driven projects into various psychiatric phenotypes and disorders using a range of research approaches.
