The Competence Centre for Transcultural Psychiatry (CTP) aims to contribute with new knowledge about how
cultural aspects influence the progression of mental disorders, and to
explore the role of culture in the assessment and treatment of mental
disorders. Our primary focus is clinical efficacy research but we also do qualitative- and basic research projects. See a list of our projects.
The
goal is that this knowledge can be implemented in the clinical work,
not only at CTP, but also at other clinics treating the same type of
patients. In order to achieve our goal, we work using a particular model
where research and clinical practice are intertwined and interact in an ongoing process:
the Treatment and Research Integrated Model (TRIM) . This model
involves systematic and continous data collection from all treatment
programmes. Read more about our goals and our strategy towards achieving them.
Due
to the nature of our work, research outputs, e.g. doctoral theses or
scientific articles, are usually the result of joint efforts across the
CTP workforce. Read more about our research coordination.
