EMH Conference

Our annual conference brings together leading experts at the University of Edinburgh to discuss their latest research on mental health. The interdisciplinary event facilitates discussions on the latest advancements in mental health research, promotes cross-departmental collaboration, and provides valuable networking opportunities.

Our 2025 conference will take place on Friday 25 April at the South Hall Complex. The theme of this years conference is "Mental Health Research in an Uncertain World". Submissions for posters and papers are now being accepted.


Posters and papers may explore, but are not limited to, the following themes or topics:

  • The psychological impact of global changes, challenges, and crises (e.g., climate change, cost of living crisis, forced migration, housing crisis, pandemics, political instability, social media, technology changes)

  • The intersection of technology and mental health care delivery, access, and outcomes (e.g., digital tools, telehealth, AI)

  • Resilience, coping strategies, and mental health recovery in times of uncertainty 

 

The topics listed above are intended as suggestions, not strict guidelines. We welcome all submissions and encourage individuals to apply if their work broadly fits within the scope of this year's theme. 


If you have any questions about this year’s conference or call for papers, please contact our Network Coordinator, MacKenzie Robertson, at mrober27@ed.ac.uk.
