Neurosciences encompasses a broad range of research from the molecular (e.g. aptamer research) to clinical (e.g. research into concussion from sports).
Our goal is to be internationally recognized in 3 areas (neuro-oncology, dementia and neurodegeneration and molecular psychiatry). We have a bench to bedside approach capitalizing on our quite unique staff profile ranging from basic biomedical scientists through pharmaceutics to clinicians.
We also focus on collaborations with our local charities and a network of researchers and clinicians across the world.
We have a significant local impact in our neuro-oncology research. One strand of our Molecular Psychiatry group is research into legal highs and this research has had an impact on the government drug policy. Our Dementia and Neurodegeneration group is funded by the company.
Clinical trials are very important as it allow us to evaluate the effectiveness of new drugs, new devices, preventative strategies or treatment strategies. It also enables us to discover better ways for patients' care.

A small proof-of-concept RCT found that tocilizumab, an IL-6 receptor blocker, showed a non-significant but clinically suggestive pattern of improvement in difficult-to-treat depression linked to low-grade inflammation. The study found that baseline hs-CRP, rather than IL-6, may help identify patients most likely to respond, supporting larger trials of immune-targeted depression care.
