Special Feature: Mental health, and undercover epidemic

Summary:

The Research*EU magazine showcases a broad range of research and innovation results, making it an essential dissemination channel for Horizon 2020 projects.After 75 issues, the magazine is being relaunched, with a revamped and refreshed look and content. We are confident that the impact of CORDIS will grow, as it tracks the breakthroughs of EU research and innovation efforts and communicates them beyond the world of research.

In this the first special section of our newly revamped Research*eu magazine, we’re playing our part in raising awareness of mental health disorders and the individuals who struggle with them on a daily basis. We’re doing this by showcasing some of the innovative EU-funded projects that have dedicated themselves to developing solutions (medical, technological and policy-based) to tackle the mental health crisis in Europe and worldwide.
