Wellcome’s mental health strategic aim is to drive a transformative change in our ability to intervene as early as possible in the course of anxiety, depression, and psychosis. This award will fund researchers to investigate the causal mechanisms through which the brain, body, and environment interact over time in the development, persistence, and resolution of anxiety- and trauma-related disorders.
