This study tests whether CBD genuinely reduces anxiety in people with social anxiety disorder. Fifty participants will receive either pharmaceutical-grade CBD or a placebo before a stressful mock interview. Researchers will measure subjective and physiological anxiety and scan participants’ brains to detect CBD’s effects, providing the first clinical evidence for or against its effectiveness.

This research uses advanced brain imaging, long-term clinical monitoring, and sensor data to understand why deep brain stimulation helps Essential Tremor patients—and why it sometimes stops working. By modelling neural pathways and analysing two-year outcomes, the project identifies optimal DBS targets and the main causes of treatment failure, improving long-term patient care.

This research tests a new personalised care model for Parkinson’s called Prime Care, offering rapid access to support and tailored interventions based on each patient’s risk of hospital admission. A two-year clinical trial of 214 participants will determine whether this approach improves wellbeing and reduces costly, harmful hospital stays.
