Individuals can use it to undertake research on their own using the SMHC’s networks or to work with colleagues in China. The ultimate aim is to generate joint publications and to win joint research grants.Background
A high-level seminar involving members of the Shanghai Mental Health Centre (SMHC) and the Institute of Mental Health was held in Shanghai in October 2008. This has been followed by visits of several SMHC colleagues to Nottingham.
Nottingham colleagues run several annual training programmes in systematic reviewing in Shanghai. Through their visits, Shanghai colleagues can find out more about opportunities in Nottingham, both to do systematic reviews and to undertake primary and secondary research.
