Bio-Psy's research interests lie in the origin and biological mechanisms of mental illnesses such as autism, schizophrenia, bipolar disorders and depression, anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorders, hyperactivity with attention deficit and addictions. By contributing to a better understanding of these diseases dysfunctions, Bio-Psy's actions should allow the identification of new therapeutic targets and the development of new therapeutic approaches.
Bio-Psy's main goals are the following :
