The Climate and Mental Health Award: Uncovering mechanisms between heat and mental health from the Wellcome Trust supports research on relevant climate-resilient and/or mental health interventions with a realistic potential for real-world application. The aim is to advance our understanding of the biological, psychological and/or social mechanisms through which heat affects anxiety, depression and psychosis in the most impacted groups globally. Applicants may be from any discipline relevant to mental health science and climate science.
Applications are to teams of researchers based anywhere in the world, except for mainland China. The grant provides up to 3 million GBP for up to 5 years (may include indirect costs).
Applications close on January 21, 2025.
