[The Mental Elf @Mental_Elf]

Calling all clinical researchers with a history of depression! We need your help #DepressionQs https://t.co/vhxOXYu8S7

[Depression ARQ @DepressionARQ]

Before we wrap up - what are the questions you have about the @DepressionARQ project / priorities that we haven't discussed? #DepressionQs

[Depression ARQ @DepressionARQ]

Who's doing this well? Anyone we can learn from that has evidence of the positive impact? #depressionQs https://t.co/dEHnsU85W9

[Mark Brown @MarkOneinFour]

@DepressionARQ I think for some research, involvement of those that experience depression will require a big change #DepressionQs

[Depression ARQ @DepressionARQ]

How can researchers make sure those with experience of depression are involved in shaping the research that is carried out? #DepressionQs

[Depression ARQ @DepressionARQ]

Going to move on to the last question as there's just 15 minutes left. #DepressionQs

[Depression ARQ @DepressionARQ]

Related Q: What would make you more likely to consider the priorities when developing your research questions / applications? #DepressionQs

[Depression ARQ @DepressionARQ]

@Mental_Elf The evidence-base will be hosted soon on @LindAlliance website with details of how the questions were formed. #DepressionQs

[Depression ARQ @DepressionARQ]

@Mental_Elf This was done already - @LindAlliance method. We checked sys reviews and only prioritised Qs that were unanswered #DepressionQs

[Depression ARQ @DepressionARQ]

Next up: what can we do to make the questions more accessible and usable for researchers? What tools or resources would help? #DepressionQs

[Depression ARQ @DepressionARQ]

Nearly half way through! Going to move on to the next Q. Let's keep the great points coming though! #DepressionQs

[Depression ARQ @DepressionARQ]

@d_galasinski which questions are you thinking of specifically? #DepressionQs

[Depression ARQ @DepressionARQ]

And are there any funding calls you’re aware of that align with any of the Depression Top 10 priorities? #DepressionQs

[Depression ARQ @DepressionARQ]

@Mental_Elf our hope is that this can be used by researchers to make the case for what they're doing, and better inform their work.

[Depression ARQ @DepressionARQ]

And specifically, relating to Q2, how can we encourage an interdisciplinary response to the priorities? #DepressionQs

[Depression ARQ @DepressionARQ]

Second question: how can we make researchers / research funders more aware of the Depression Top 10 priorities? #DepressionQs
