RESEARCH PROGRAM

The Schizophrenia Research Institute was established in 1996 with a vision of discovering the means to prevent and cure schizophrenia. The Institute initiates, supports and conducts world-class research into schizophrenia to advance understanding of its clinical components, mechanisms, causes, treatment and prevention.

To meet the challenge of schizophrenia, we support and coordinate basic and applied research in a variety of different disciplines including the clinical, cognitive neuroscience and neurobiological fields. The Institute has also created a number of critical schizophrenia research infrastructure facilities that support schizophrenia research being undertaken in Australia and internationally.

The Schizophrenia Research Institute is a 'virtual institute' that utilises appropriate research and infrastructure facilities in universities, hospitals and research institutes. Our network also encompasses leading national and overseas organisations in a continual exchange of information, as well as collaborative partnerships on specific research programs.
