Accelerating Mental Health Research for Transformative Breakthroughs

The voice of lived experience has gained increased prominence in mental health research. Further, the field has witnessed greater global investment and a breakdown of silos. Yet, headline-grabbing breakthroughs remain elusive. What does the sector need to do to undergo the kinds of advances seen in other health sectors? This is one of the many thought-provoking questions that we intend to delve into during this discussion.

As a funder and advisor for mental health and addiction, Lea Milligan, CEO of MQ Mental Health Research, sets the challenge for bolder decision-making by industry, regulators, and researchers alike to see lives transformed. This discussion will cover the types of research necessary to lead to true breakthroughs, explore how funders approach the field, and review new approach (as well as funding) calls that the community should be aware of.
