Science

Science is more than my profession: it is a way to make a real difference in the lives of people with mental illness.

I do this work together with my team in the Laboratory for Mental Health Mapping. It is organized into four themes, described in detail on the lab website.

Foundations

What does it mean to be healthy, and where does a disorder begin? Together with philosophers, clinicians, and patients, we look for answers that hold up. More

Structures

Mental health takes shape between biology, family, and society. We study how these levels work together. More

Markers

Two people with the same diagnosis can be very different. We look for markers that make these differences visible. More

Models

We develop machine learning methods that handle large, complex data and can make their way into the clinic. More

Selected publications are on the lab website, and a full list is on Google Scholar.
