Clinical Psychology (UvA)

The mission of the Clinical Psychology programme is to conduct fundamental research using methods and models from basic psychology to investigate psychopathology, and to run trials to inform clinical practice.

The Clinical Psychology research programme comprises two research lines: our fundamental research focuses on the neurobiological and psychological underpinnings of emotional memory. A second line of research focuses on treatment outcome research in a wide variety of psychiatric disorders, including technological innovations in psychotherapy. These two research lines are complemented by research from an individual differences perspective (applied).
