Focusing on the study of mental illness, including psychotic disorders, anxiety disorders, and drug addiction, we will extensively study the problems that affect mental health and related areas in children and adults. Using a wide variety of research methods, from neuroscience to social medicine, we aim to clarify the root causes and pathogenesis of disease and develop effective treatment interventions from a variety of perspectives and angles.
