Our new Mental Health Award is all about longitudinal data. Mental health conditions are complex, involving many different factors. Longitudinal datasets can help us understand them. This could be key to transforming early intervention. [1/3]

We’re offering up to £5 million per award to use these datasets to find early signs of anxiety, depression and psychosis. In future, this knowledge could help clinicians identify and treat people with mental health problems earlier. [2/3]

We’re looking for diverse teams, combining mental health, data science and lived experience expertise. And we’re particularly interested in research in low- and middle-income countries. Applications are open now. Find out more ⤵️ wellcome.org/grant-funding/… [3/3]

Millions of people worldwide are held back by anxiety, depression and psychosis. But what if we could predict the onset or progression of these problems? This is the goal of our new Mental Health Award. [1/3]

Longitudinal data has the potential to transform early intervention in mental health. That’s why we’re funding researchers to use it to find early signs of mental health problems. We're looking for diverse, interdisciplinary teams. Apply by 22 July ⤵️ wellcome.org/grant-funding/…
