UKRI Policy Fellowship based on CRIS ID 19-055 (The interrelationships between receiving benefits, employment status and mental health: a data linkage project)

  • Applicant: Cristina Sechel
  • Project ID: 24-071

There is a need to better understand links between mental health, employment, and benefits receipt in the UK. This project will investigate the relationships between receiving benefits, employment status, mental health difficulties, treatment, well-being and recovery using national information on benefits receipt linked to CRIS (mental healthcare).

The Clinical Record Interactive Search (CRIS) system is a computer system that allows researchers at the NIHR Maudsley Biomedical Research Centre (BRC) to carry out research using information from South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust clinical records.
