Psychiatry Centre, Capital Region
The Psychiatric Research Unit is dedicated to advancing evidence-based treatment through research closely integrated with clinical practice. Collaboration between clinicians, psychologists, neurologists, molecular biologists, and biostatisticians ensures a comprehensive approach to mental health research. Key focus areas include affective disorders, psychosis—particularly schizophrenia—psychiatric genetics, and early intervention strategies. Future research will emphasize eating disorders and psychotherapy while strengthening the link between research and patient care. The unit collaborates with leading institutions, including the University of Copenhagen, Aarhus University, and the Technical University of Denmark, to enhance understanding and improve treatment outcomes.
