Welcome to the Discipline of Psychiatry

Professor Aiden Corvin,
Head of Discipline

Welcome to psychiatry, a medical speciality with a strong scientific basis.

The Discipline is involved in teaching and research and works with clinical services, partner hospitals and clinical colleagues with part-time academic appointments.

Our undergraduate teaching is to medical students and we offer postgraduate courses in psychological therapies and in biological aspects of psychiatry. We have a broad research agenda with key strengths in clinical research, genomics and neuroimaging. We work closely with the TCD institutes of Neuroscience, Translational Medicine and Biomedical Sciences and a global network of collaborators
