Overview
We want PsySTAR trainees to identify the research project that most interests, excites and suits them and to work with the supervisors most suited to their project.
Examples of topics and supervisors include:
- Adrian Bird FRS: Epigenetics
- Siddarthan Chandran and Sir Ian Wilmut FRS: Stem cell biology
- Ian Deary: Cognitive epidemiology
- Ian Ford: Record linkage of routinely collected data
- Jerry Lambert: GABA receptor neurobiology
- Sally Macintyre: The social determinants of mental well-being and ill health
- Richard Morris FRS: Hippocampal biology
- Gordon Murray and Peter Sandercock: Clinical trial design and execution
- David Porteous and Nick Hastie FRS: Psychiatric genetics
The strength and depth of our supervisor pool is demonstrated in their CVs, which also note their impressive track record in research training.
Identifying supervisors
You will work with a primary and secondary supervisor. Collaborating with a wide range of supervisors is positively encouraged by the Board and the MRF/MRC.
