AI and computational research in mental health
We combine clinical expertise with artificial intelligence and computational modelling to understand mental illness and improve how we predict its course. Our goal is to translate these insights into earlier recognition, more personalised treatment and better prevention.
Research themes
All researchPrediction & precision psychiatry
Machine-learning models that forecast individual outcomes in people at clinical high risk.
4 projects
Language & digital markers
Speech, language and smartphone data as scalable markers of mental health.
2 projects
Computational modeling & generative agents
Brain-network simulations, symptom networks, digital twins and LLM-based agents.
3 projects
