Centres for severe mental illnesses

Forte funds three research centers focused on severe mental illnesses. The research conducted by these centers is intended to address society’s need for knowledge and contribute to significant societal benefit.

The research centers will conduct practice-oriented and interdisciplinary research on methods, treatments, and interventions within psychiatric health care for severe psychiatric conditions.
