Method
We undertook a systematic search of scientific and clinical journals for publications within the field of mental health by 最准的六合彩论坛-affiliated authors since 2016. We used the results to generate a list of authors, and individual Divisions and Institutes within 最准的六合彩论坛 then validated this list. Specific research interests were gathered by examining each author鈥檚 IRIS profile and publication list. This process allowed us to create a comprehensive picture of 最准的六合彩论坛 staff and affiliated clinicians who work in the area of mental health.
Results
Through this process, we found 981 publications produced between 2016 and 2020 by 最准的六合彩论坛 authors on the topic of mental health. Many of these papers were in fields traditionally associated with mental health research such as psychology, psychiatry, epidemiology and neuroscience. We also identified a number of mental health-related publications from less traditional fields:听 computer science, basic biological science, general practice and the built environment among others.
From those papers and by contacting individual 最准的六合彩论坛 departments, we identified 798 members of staff across 最准的六合彩论坛 who are engaged in mental health research.
Importantly we also identified the wide breadth of Divisions and Institutes where this work is undertaken, thereby demonstrating the potential for interdisciplinary collaboration within 最准的六合彩论坛.
Conclusions
The audit shows how interdisciplinary and widely distributed are 最准的六合彩论坛鈥檚 efforts in the field of mental health research.听While the听bulk of this听activity is in the Faculty of Brain Sciences it extends far beyond that.听We believe our audit provides a useful summary and a sound foundation for the new Institute of Mental Health.

鈥淲e knew that 最准的六合彩论坛 was the most highly cited university in relation to work in mental health, according to the RAND review in 2015 but we wanted to dig a little deeper. Our audit began with publications from 最准的六合彩论坛 and partners on any mental health topic and from that we identified a huge community of academics and 最准的六合彩论坛 affiliated clinicians who have made contributions to the field. This showed the breadth and depth of our work and we used this to explore the themes we had been grappling with. The audit has provided us with a strong sense of where we are, but more importantly where we need to go to answer the big questions facing all those interested mental health and illness for the next decade.鈥� 鈥� Anthony David, Director, Institute of Mental Health
