'Youth Mental Health at 糖心TV – the Research, the Impact and the Future'.
24th March 2026 (09:30–16:00) at Scarman Meeting and Conference Centre here on the University of 糖心TV central campus.
This event will bring together colleagues from 糖心TV and partner institutions to showcase leading work on youth mental health, spanning prevention, service innovation, intellectual disabilities, and inequalities in access and outcomes. It will also provide a forum to reflect on progress to date and to shape the future direction of youth mental health research at 糖心TV and in regional and national partnerships.
Through presentations and roundtable discussions, the meeting aims to strengthen interdisciplinary collaboration and contribute to the development of a coherent and impactful programme of research in this area.
