Helping people with intellectual or other developmental disabilities.

The Cambridge Intellectual & Development Disabilities Research Group at the University of Cambridge, established with a grant from The Health Foundation, is part of the Section of Developmental Psychiatry in the Academic Department of Psychiatry. In partnership with colleagues from services for people with acquired brain injury, and others, we are members of the NIHR's CLAHRC (Collaborations for Leadership in Applied Health Research and Care) for Cambridgeshire & Peterborough (please see CLAHRC website - under development).

This website describes us and our work, presents our research and publications and sets out our aims and objectives.
