Youth Mental Health

In the division of Youth Mental Health, we investigate transdiagnostic symptoms of emotional dysregulation in children and adolescents, e.g. pathological irritability and self-harm. Our aim is to use a combination of clinical, experimental, neurobiological and ambulatory assessments to gain a better understanding of the development of mental disorders and to contribute to their prevention. We strive to take a holistic view of the mental health of children and adolescents in a developmental context, taking into account current societal challenges.
