South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust believe research is at the heart of better clinical care, and they are proud to be leading the way in developing treatments and improving people’s mental health.

There are many people involved in making that happen, and the Changing Lives through Research photography exhibition captures images of research from across the Trust – portraits of staff who become part of the Research Champion network, colleagues from the Joint Research and Development Office of the Trust and IoPPN, staff from the NIHR Maudsley BRC and representation across the workforce – clinical, academic, corporate, and beyond.

In this exhibition, you are invited to read short stories of what research at the Trust means to them – from making patients comfortable when taking part in studies, to how research skills can be a powerful tool in everyday practice.

Research can take many forms, and this exhibition aims to reveal some of the ways in which South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust is having an impact on the lives of people now, and in the future.

 

A project led by the Research and Development team.
