SCHIZOPHRENIA PROGRAMME
Julio Sanjuán Arias (G23) Coordinator
Description
The main objective of the Schizophrenia Programme is the multidisciplinary study of this serious mental disorder by trying to integrate research on animal models, research on new molecules, the neurobiological basis and psychosocial needs . All this is geared towards reducing the distance, which is still quite large today, between research and clinical practice .
The Schizophrenia Programme involves the largest number of groups (12) . As a result of this broad participation combined with the Common Database and various collaborative studies, this programme has the largest clinical and genetic database . Important collaborative projects on the progression of the first psychotic episodes have been developed through this programme .
2014 has been particularly important for this programme because it is the year in which results and publications relating to important collaborative projects have started to appear .
