IRTG 2773 1st Retreat

Both TU Dresden and King’s College London are pioneering work in several research fields within Psychiatry, Psychology and Neurosciences, with the goal to deepen the understanding of the single aspects. An outstanding example is the joint International Research Training Group 2773 “Risk Factors and Pathomechanisms of Affective Disorders” that has started in 2022. Since the importance of research in psychology and mental health issues continues to spread farther in today’s global society, the expansion of the transCampus network in this field is a great success.

Under the guide of Michael Bauer, Allan Young, Andrea Pfennig and Katya Rubia the programme has been successfully implemented, including a joint PhD agreement in Psychiatry, Psychology and Neuroscience. Learn more about the team, the research groups, and events on the training groups’ website. If you require specific information, please contact irtg2773@tu-dresden.de.

However, the IRTG 2773 is not the only collaboration project in the area of mental health. Some more projects can be found below.
