PsychGen Centre for Genetic Epidemiology and Mental Health
An interdisciplinary research centre for knowledge about how mental health develops and progresses throughout life.
The PsychGen Center at the Norwegian Institute of Public Health (FHI) has been in dialogue with the organization Mental Helse to learn what kind of mental health research their members think is important.
