About the group
There is large variation in the course of psychiatric disorders and in their response to drugs. This variation stems from a variety of factors including disease heterogeneity due to the presence of different clinical and biological subtypes. Additionally, differences in the interaction of a drug with its targets and individual rates in the ability to metabolize a drug are important in determining treatment outcomes and disease courses. Center for Translational Psychiatry aims at gaining new knowledge about clinical and biological markers determining the course of psychiatric disorders, in particular ADHD and autism, and promote implementation of these findings in the clinic.
