Do you want to share your research and experience within a supportive community of peers?
We are group of mental health researchers who are interested in sharing our experience, enthusiasm and advice with others. We're looking for new case study contributors, and people who are willing to share advice about schemes they have been part of. Early and mid-career researchers are especially welcome. Regular contributors have the chance to join our advisory group and help set the direction for new activities.
Meet the team and get involved
The incubator for mental health research is directed by Professor Cathy Creswell and a steering group of 10 senior academics who are based in a number of different UK universities. Cathy works closely with Bea Shelley and Kaja Wawrzak to coordinate activities. A team of Early Career Researchers advises on the activities and initiatives that the incubator takes forward.
