The focus lies in applying dynamic network models at various levels (neurobiological, psychological, and psychopathological) to mental health conditions. Researchers from Justus-Liebig University Giessen, Goethe University Frankfurt, and Technical University Darmstadt, as well as the Leibniz Institute for Research and Information in Education (DIPF) and the Ernst Strüngmann Institute for Neuroscience (ESI), are working under the leadership of Philipps University Marburg to jointly develop novel and more precise therapeutic approaches. The participating university hospitals and outpatient psychotherapy clinics at the psychological university departments further support the rapid translation of research findings into clinical practice. At JLU, the research group will closely collaborate with the LOEWE Center Dynamic-affiliated chairs of Psychotherapy and Systems Neuroscience (Prof. Dr. Rudolf Stark), Clinical Psychology (Prof. Dr. Christiane Hermann), Psychotherapy Research (tba), and Clinical Neuropsychology (Prof. Dr. Jutta Billino), as well as the Chair of Psychiatry (Prof. Dr. Christoph Mulert).The research focus of the newly established junior research group «Network-Based Classification Approaches", which you will lead and which includes one research associate, lies in the conceptualization and advancement of innovative network-based approaches to the classification of mental disorders. Currently, mental illnesses are characterized based on categorical (or dimensional) diagnoses. However, this approach presents challenges such as high comorbidity rates and offers only limited clinical utility (e.g., in predicting treatment outcomes). In collaboration with colleagues from the central project, this DYNAMIC junior research group aims to develop a novel, network-based description of psychopathology and validate it within a large-scale study. This will be based on the dynamic measurement of biological, psychological, and psychopathological variables.
