Professor Jeremy Hall

Principal Investigator

Professor Jeremy Hall is Director of the Neurosciences & Mental Health Research Institute at Cardiff University.

His overarching interest is in the role of genetic and environmental risk factors in the development of neurodevelopmental disorders such as schizophrenia, autism and related personality disorders.

He is particularly interested in how identified penetrant genetic risk factors affect plasticity and basic learning processes in the brain, abnormalities in which underlie the key symptoms seen in a range of mental health problems.

In addition to his pre-clinical work Jeremy also conducts clinical work and research in the fields of adult neurodevelopmental disorders and early psychosis.
