Teams and roles for Catrin Hopkins

  • Communications Manager, Division of Psychological Medicine and Clinical Neurosciences

    Administration

Overview

I lead the communications team of the division of Psychological Medicine and Clinical Neurosciences. Our team supports the division's academic researchers, maximising their opportunities to communicate their research, through delivering professional advice, guidance, and support in communications, marketing, and public engagement. 

This includes the Centre for Neuropsychiatric Genetics and Genomics, the National Centre for Mental Health, the Advanced Neurotherapies Centre, the Wolfson Centre for Young People's Mental Health, and Canopi mental health support service.

We cover a bit of everything from producing print materials in-house such as annual reports, and postcards and posters for study recruitment; digital materials for social media, screens, and newsletters; as well as managing websites and blogs. We also coordinate public engagement events and activity to raise awareness of mental health conditions, and the research happening at Cardiff University that is aiming to improve diagnosis, treatment and support. 

 

 

Engagement

Part of my role within the division is leading our public engagement activity. 

Public engagement is vital for discussing, involving, and collaborating with the public on Cardiff University's research. The division of psychological medicine and clinical neurosciences has a strong track record in developing fun and innovative public engagement activities and projects (if I do say so myself). 

Below is a taste of the activity I have led and been involved in during my time at Cardiff University:
