ABOUT US

The work of NTTR SIG members falls into one or more of the following interconnected areas:

  1. Understanding the mechanisms of a) psychiatric disorders and/or b) interventions

  2. Prediction, i.e., neuroprediction and/or treatment allocation

  3. Direct intervention through a) development of neuroscience informed cognitive interventions and/or b) augmentation of existing interventions
