University of Glasgow: against COVID-19 University
Project: UK-wide Mental Health Impacts of Coronavirus (provisional working title).
Research Group: Cardiovascular Epidemiology Unit
Project Description: The world is currently in the grip of the new Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19). Whilst ‘flattening the curve’ and a race for a vaccine are the main foci, the population mental health impacts of the pandemic are going to last much longer than the physical health impacts.
The Mental Health Foundation UK (P.I.) has teamed up with Dr Tine Van Bortel at the Cambridge Institute of Public Health (Co-P.I.) and three collaborating universities across the UK (Swansea, Belfast and Glasgow) to monitor the psychological wellbeing of the nation as the Coronavirus pandemic sweeps around the world. This longitudinal study conducts fortnightly surveys as well as qualitative research with people in the UK to ensure that emerging mental health problems are spotted early on and appropriate interventions are developed and implemented.
Collaborators: This research is a collaboration between the Mental Health Foundation UK (P.I.), the University of Cambridge (Academic Co-P.I.) and three additional collaborating universities (Co-Is) in Swansea, Belfast and Glasgow, ensuring presence of each devolved nation in the UK.
