The @APEAL_Lab is recruiting for a post-doc focused on supportive factors for mental health of transgender and gender diverse youth: psychepi.com/2024/10/18/pos…. Please share widely!


Sobering new @APEAL_Lab research shows that we need better supports for transgender and gender diverse people.

A nationally representative study from Canada found that transgender and gender diverse people are at a higher risk of past year and lifetime mental health disorders, substance use disorder, and suicidal behavior, compared to the cisgender population. ja.ma/47XXLoE

We were deeply saddened to learn of Professor Sir David Goldberg's passing this week. He was a titan of social psychiatry, & designed the Clinical Interview Schedule & General Health Questionnaire, two vital measures of mental wellbeing, amongst many other achievements
