NCMD

The first major goal of NCMD is to improve the care of patients with mood disorders. NCMD aims to achieve this through greater research into the underpinnings, and treatment of, mood disorders. In addition, NCMD will act as a focus for the development and implementation of cutting edge therapies and the development of optimised patient pathways. NCMD will have strong links with the Regional Affective Disorders Service (RADS) and the Specialist Adolescent Mood Disorders Service (SAMS) within CNTW... NCMD's Academic Lead is Professor Hamish McAllister-Williams supported by an Executive Committee with CNTW, Newcastle University and lay membership... The Northern Centre for Mood Disorders (NCMD) brings together those who are interested in advancing treatment and care in conditions such as depressive illnesses and bipolar disorders.
