World Economic Forum Annual Meeting of the New Champions 2019

Faculty of Brain Sciences researchers recently attended the Annual Meeting of the New Champions 2019, leading the discussion on the future of mental health research.

The Annual Meeting of the New Champions is designed as the foremost global summit on innovation and entrepreneurship around the biggest challenges facing society today. One such challenge is mental health.

UCL was approached for its innovative research into mental health, with UCL speakers presenting at the meeting, including, Dr Susanne Schweizer (Institute of Cognitive Neuroscience), Dr Joseph Hayes (Division of Psychiatry) and Dr Rick Adams (Institute of Cognitive Neuroscience). You can watch their talks below or read more about the event in our news article. 

“The newly established ‘Institute of Mental Health’ became the catalyst to bring together some of our most up-and-coming researchers who together were perfectly placed to convey the spectrum of new research at UCL. I was therefore delighted that Rick, Susanne and Joe were able to represent the Institute – with their cutting-edge work on computational psychiatry and neurophysiology; cognitive neuroscience in adolescence; and ‘big data’ epidemiology in mental health. Such a unique and exciting program!” Prof Tony David, Director & Sackler Chair, UCL Institute of Mental Health.
