Neuropsychiatric and Laboratory
Insults to the brain come in different forms, often subtle or not detected. Common insults arise from chronic stress, viral infections, hypoxia and the inappropriate use of medicines. These insults can cause biological changes that develop into illness. This laboratory seeks to identify those biological changes to better understand, prevent and treat those who become unwell. Students are encouraged to become involved in the following projects: #1 Precision Medicine for Mental Health; #2 Epigenetics and Major Depression; #3 Discovery of Biomarkers in Myalgic encephalomyelitis chronic fatigue syndrome (MECFS).

SAHMRI is located on Kaurna Country. We pay respects to the Kaurna people of the Adelaide Plains and to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. We are committed to embracing knowledge and culture as we continue our working journey to incorporate Aboriginal health research across all of our themes and further reconciliation.
