Welcome

Team Lithium is a group of clinicians and professional scientists from a diverse range of disciplines. We are striving to understand the nature of lithium in order to improve the treatment of common psychiatric illnesses. We are based in Newcastle upon Tyne, UK, at the Translational and Clinical Research Institute. We conduct most of our research at Newcastle Magnetic Resonance Centre, a newly built facility at Newcastle University. We also collaborate internationally.

The main purpose of this site is to provide information for potential research volunteers. Further details of the studies, past and present, can be found under Our Research. You can stay up to date with the latest news and activities of Team Lithium by following us on Twitter.

If you've found your way here, please stay and have a look around. Hopefully you'll learn something interesting about lithium and if you're interested in getting involved with one of our studies, just drop us a line.
