Welcome to Oxford Social Psychiatry
Part of the University of Oxford
Welcome to the Social Psychiatry Group in Oxford.
The group has been established at the University of Oxford since May 2003 when Professor Tom Burns moved to the new position of Chair of Social Psychiatry. Since then the group has grown and successfully established itself within the Department of Psychiatry.
The strength of the group lies in its diverse research interests broadly focusing on health services research and in the differing backgrounds and expertise of its members. Over the last few years, much of our work has focused on formal and informal coercion in mental health.
More information about our research activities can be found here and you can meet the research team here.
