In September 2019, around 300 researchers, clinicians, students, partner organisations and service users gathered at the Royal College of Physicians in London for our conference: New technologies and mechanisms in mental health.
Here you can find a selection of the presentations given by NIHR Maudsley BRC-supported researchers on the day.
We also took the opportunity of the conference to make a film about our work, which you can watch via YouTube.
