Timau a rolau for Olga Eyre
Cymrawd Ymchwil Clinigol, Is-adran Meddygaeth Seicolegol a Niwrowyddorau Clinigol
Trosolwyg
Rwy'n gymrawd ymchwil glinigol mewn Seiciatreg Plant a'r Glasoed wedi'i leoli yng Nghanolfan Wolfson ar gyfer Iechyd Meddwl Pobl Ifanc.
Mae fy ymchwil hyd yma wedi canolbwyntio ar anniddigrwydd, Anhwylder Diffyg Sylw a Gorfywiogrwydd (ADHD) ac iselder mewn pobl ifanc. Cwblheais Gymrodoriaeth Hyfforddiant Ymchwil Clinigol Wellcome Trust yn 2019, a oedd yn datgelu'r cysylltiad rhwng anniddigrwydd plentyndod ac iselder glasoed yn ddiweddarach mewn pobl ifanc ag ADHD ac anawsterau niwroddatblygiadol eraill. Mae gen i ddiddordeb mewn deall mwy am ffactorau risg cynnar ar gyfer iselder, yn enwedig mewn plant a phobl ifanc â anniddigrwydd difrifol ac ADHD.
Mae fy rôl bresennol yng Nghanolfan Wolfson ar gyfer Iechyd Meddwl Pobl Ifanc yn cynnwys cefnogi cyflwyno treial rheoledig ar hap o ymyrraeth seicolegol grŵp ar gyfer atal iselder glasoed.
