ENTER: E-DetectioN Tool for Emerging Mental DisoRder
ENTER is a Wellcome Trust funded project in collaboration with Peter Uhlhaas (Professor for Early Detection and Intervention of Mental Disorders, University of Glasgow) and Paolo Fusar-Poli (Professor of Preventive Psychiatry, King's College London) and is developing an online tool to help the detection of young adults at risk or in the early stages of psychosis. Psychotic episodes can be linked to mental disorders such as schizophrenia or bipolar disorder and can manifest with experiences of hallucinations, delusions and disorganised thinking and speech. Early detection of people at risk of developing these symptons can lead to earlier treatment and can lessen the impact of possible emerging mental illnesses.
