The Southern Synergy centre particular strengths lie in a unique combination of research, training and clinical academic staff with close linkage to a major mental health care provider. Our multidisciplinary team consists of members from psychiatry, clinical psychology, social work, epidemiology and biostatistics, health economics and sociology.
As a research group we're primarily based in the Department of Psychiatry, within the School of Clinical Sciences at Monash Health.
