Fantastic to be involved in this exciting Hub and to be in Edinburgh for the launch of the hub and The Mental Health Platform @MHPlatform @uniofexeHLS @ExeterMed
Lots of exciting ideas and future work to come!
The Hub for Metabolic Psychiatry aims to advance our understanding of the connection between metabolic and mental health.
Today we’re officially launching as part of @MHPlatform!
Led by @ProfDanielSmith at @EdinUniMentalH
