Professor David Baldwin is Professor of Psychiatry within Medicine at the University of Southampton.
I strive to enhance understanding of anxiety and depression and to provide comprehensive patient-centred clinical care: and adhere to no particular ideology about the nature, causes or treatment of mood and anxiety disorders.
Anxiety and depression: research, education and treatment.
I aim to improve outcomes in mood and anxiety disorders: by investigating the role of neurobiological and psychological factors in causing and maintaining illness; by exploring notions of emotional well-being; through improving trial design when evaluating efficacy and tolerability of treatment interventions; by assessing the effectiveness and acceptability of treatment interventions in wider clinical practice; through identifying more accurately those patient groups at particular risk of poor outcomes; and by offering a tertiary referral specialist clinical service to patients with treatment-resistant conditions.
