Professor Neil Harrison
Teams and roles for Neil Harrison
Clinical Professor in Neuroimaging
Overview
Neil Harrison leads the Immunopsychiatry Research Group based at the Cardiff University Brain Research Imaging Centre (CUBRIC) and the Haydn Ellis Building (HEB).
Prior to moving to Cardiff he spent 10 years in Sussex where he established the first UK Clinical Immunopsychiatry Service providing bespoke treatments for people with difficult-to-treat depression in the context of inflammation. He completed a PhD in Neuroscience at the Wellcome Trust Centre for Neuroimaging (UCL), and psychiatry training at the Maudsley Hospital and National Hospital for Neurology, Queen Square.
His research investigates how the body's immune system interacts with the brain to alter mood, motivation and cognition and contribute to common mental illnesses such as Depression and Alzheimer’s disease.
His research has been funded through grants from the MRC, Wellcome Trust, Arthritis Research UK (now Versus Arthritis) and Janssen Pharmaceutics.
He is President Elect for the Psychoneuroimmunology Research Society, the leading international society for research into the bidirectional interactions between the immune system and the brain - https://pnirs.memberclicks.net and sits on the Clinical Interview Committee for the Wellcome Trust - https://wellcome.ac.uk/funding/guidance/funding-application-advisory-committees/clinical-interview-committee.
