About

Welcome to our story-in-process.

Research in service to mental health.
To health.
To live.

From planet to people along the lifespan and generations.

Entangled in the ecosystem in which the departments of Psychology and Psychiatry of the Amsterdam UMC, with mental health partners and society at large, learn, synthesize and implement.

Compassionate and academic.
Knowledgeable and just.
Creative and critical.
Engaged and accountable.
Striving for equity.

We hope you will discover new developments next time you visit us. Or should we say, join us.
