The Academic Collaborative Center Forensic Psychiatry constitutes a collaboration of Inforsa, Arkin’s division for forensic psychiatry, and the Department of Psychiatry at Amsterdam UMC. The center focuses on research into interventions that support recovery and reduce criminal or disruptive behaviour in individuals with severe mental illness. The unique patient population and specialized treatments at Inforsa provide an opportunity to study interventions that are not widely implemented elsewhere. The center also drives innovation by introducing and evaluating new treatment approaches. In doing so, it contributes to improving care both within Inforsa and in similar settings. 
Ongoing projects include research on social network reinforcement, music therapy, psychotherapy for forensic outpatients, and electroconvulsive therapy for treatment-resistant disorders.
