Global database linking genetics and health records for mental illness
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This trial is building a research database that combines genetic information and long-term health data to improve personalized treatment for serious mental illness. You may be eligible if you have been diagnosed or treated for depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, or dementia.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have an electronic health record in primary or secondary care.
- You are 18 years or older (no upper age limit).
- You have been diagnosed or treated for major depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, or dementia (including mild cognitive impairment).
- You can speak English (for mental health groups) or understand spoken/written English (for dementia group).
- If you have dementia, you must be willing to complete a cognitive assessment like MoCA or SLUMS.

This study is developing more personalized treatments for schizophrenia, depression, or bipolar disorder. It may help find the best treatment approach for your specific situation.
This trial tests a new medical device that uses a blood test to help doctors accurately diagnose bipolar disorder in people who were thought to have major depression. It aims to see if the device can tell the difference and improve treatment choices.
This study looks at how mood disorders like depression and bipolar disorder affect people over time. You will be asked to complete surveys and maybe some computer tasks to help researchers better understand these conditions.
This study collects information about mental health symptoms and body/genetic samples to better understand how different mental health conditions are related. Some people may also have brain scans (PET or MRI) if they can safely complete them.
This study is building a genetic and blood-sample database to better understand bipolar disorder. Researchers will compare people with bipolar disorder to controls to find biological clues that may improve future diagnosis and treatment.
This study builds a database and collects samples (like blood) from people with schizophrenia to learn more about the condition. If you join, you help researchers understand schizophrenia better, which may lead to improved treatments.
