The Emerging Minds network would like to invite you to a kick off meeting and a morning of workshops hosted by Professor Chérie Armour of Queen’s University, Belfast.
Emerging Minds is a mental health research network funded by UK Research & Innovation (UKRI) with the aim of encouraging research across sectors and disciplines. We want to reduce the prevalence of mental health problems amongst children and young people through mental health promotion, prevention, and early treatment.
The Emerging Minds network has a fund of £500,000 to share to enable research collaborations. We have prioritised 4 research challenges from the questions that young people, families, practitioners and policy makers have told us are most important and pressing. The purpose of the meeting and workshops is to kick start the next stage of the project.
