Bipolar risk in youth: short, medium and longer-term implications for prevention [ 2019 - ]

Research Grant

Researchers: Dr Aswin Ratheesh (Principal investigator)

Brief description Young people with bipolar disorders (BD) have poor outcomes in the absence of early and preventive interventions. I propose to study the impact of bipolar risk in three follow-up studies of young people attending clinical settings or from the community. The findings from these studies will help develop a new risk identification tool, and inform clinicians, young people and their families regarding short and longer-term risk and resilience factors for bipolar disorders.
