Dr Golam Khandaker and Prof Peter Jones, both of the Department of Psychiatry, have received a Data Science Award from the MQ Mental Health research charity. Through the award, they will investigate the role of inflammation in both mental and physical illnesses, where they aim to identify shared mechanisms that give rise to highly-comorbid conditions, such as depression and cardiovascular disease.
More information on their forthcoming work can be found on the MQ Mental Health website.
