Addictions Service User Research Group (SURG)

The central aim of the SURG is to build meaningful and reciprocal relationships between addiction researchers and service users when thinking through research problems, designing studies, preparing grant applications and ultimately conducting and disseminating research.

ADHD and Associated Disorders

Our research focuses on attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and neurodevelopmental and psychiatric disorders that often co-occur with ADHD. We take a developmental approach, studying the disorders and traits from childhood to adulthood.

ALS/motor neuron disease

Working closely with our patients, our prize-winning, world-leading research programme aims to understand the causes of ALS/MND, dissect out the differences between clinical presentations, and use this information to develop new treatments.

Altering Behaviour in Children

Improving understanding of children with behavioural difficulties by assessing brain changes following parenting interventions 

Alzheimer’s disease

We research the underlying causes of Alzheimer's disease, including genetics and environmental factors, to determine why only some people are affected. We also research the mechanisms that lead to disease to discover/isolate events at the cellular level that cause Alzheimer's disease. Pre-symptomatic changes may hold the answer for providing a window to intervene and stop this disease before it takes a hold.
