Mental Health Research Group (MHRG)
The Mental Health Research Group (MHRG) is led by Professor Karina Lovell and Dr Penny Bee, two of the leading mental health researchers in the UK.
The MHRG prides itself on its outstanding international reputation and its vibrant, active and supportive research environment.
The aim of the MHRG is to undertake and disseminate high-quality national and international, interdisciplinary, mental health research that both influences and is responsive to contemporary mental health policy, practice and education.
Our research is informed by psychosocial models of mental health, particularly cognitive and behavioural approaches.
Our work both benefits from and contributes to multidisciplinary local, national and international collaborations. We have close links with NHS trusts throughout England, and mental health charities and user and carer organisations at local and national levels.
