Wellcome Trust: Mental Health Award- Using physical activity and circadian-based interventions to reduce anxiety and depression in young people

Description:

This award will fund mechanistically informed trials of interventions for anxiety and depression in young people aged 10-18 years. Successful teams will build on existing mechanistic evidence to develop more precise and effective early interventions that have the potential to scale. With this Mental Health Award, we will fund interventions for young people in the UK and Africa that have the potential to scale, while deepening our mechanistic understanding of how and why they work. Specifically, we want to fund projects that integrate circadian rhythms and/or physical activity, two key active ingredients in the development and treatment of mental health problems.

Funding: £1-4 million per grant for 3-4 years.
