About Us

As a world-leading research-intensive University, we are here to address tomorrow's greatest challenges. Between now and 2030 we will do that with a values-led approach to teaching, research and innovation, and through the strength of our relationships, both locally and globally.

About the Team

The Centre for Clinical Brain Sciences (CCBS; Director Professor Siddharthan Chandran) is part of Edinburgh Neuroscience and Edinburgh Medical School. CCBS comprises the Divisions of Clinical Neurosciences (Head: Professor Siddharthan Chandran), Psychiatry (Head: Professor Daniel Smith) and Neuroimaging Sciences (Head: Professor Joanna Wardlaw). Our work integrates laboratory science, data science, health informatics and clinical research to study the causes, consequences and treatment of all major neurological and psychiatric disorders. Methodological strengths include neuroimaging, clinical trials, neuropathology, neuropsychiatric genetics and regenerative neurology.

We have 56 Principal Investigators, 70% of whom are NHS clinicians, grounding our work in clinical need and facilitating translation into patient benefit. We produce more than 500 research outputs per year, leading to improved patient care and NHS policy changes, with substantial impact on morbidity and mortality. CCBS researchers attracted £49M in external funding over the last three years and we collaborate globally, leading national and international consortia in neurodegenerative disorders, global mental health, psychiatric conditions, stroke and small vessel disease.

With bases at Edinburgh BioQuarter, Royal Edinburgh Hospital and Western General Hospital, CCBS locations link laboratory and clinical science with informatics, public engagement and commerce to facilitate creative interdisciplinary working. CCBS hosts c.60 postgraduate students, mostly PhDs. We are particularly strong in clinical PhD training, with bespoke funding schemes (e.g. Rowling Scholars), and we host the Wellcome Translational Neuroscience Doctoral Training Programme. Through generous philanthropic support, CCBS has established many specialist research hubs that are expanded by community fundraising and which engage closely with patient groups, policy- makers and public.
