About the organizers
Lifebrain (coordinated by the University of Oslo, Norway) is focused on environmental, social, occupational and lifestyle factors influencing brain health. Lifebrain includes 13 partners integrating data from approximately 5200 European research participants collected in 11 European brain-imaging studies from 7 countries. The Lifebrain project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 732592.
The University of Oxford Department of Psychiatry is an important contributor to the University’s Strategy for Neuroscience. Our core interest is in the mechanism of action of psychotropic drugs and psychotherapy, understood from the perspective of cognitive neuroscience. By harnessing cognitive neuroscience models, often based on brain imaging, we can provide surrogates for understanding mechanisms of psychiatric disease, individual differences, and how effective treatments really work. In the last Research Excellence Framework 2014 Oxford ranked top in the UK for the quality and impact of its psychiatry research.
