We have searched the world for large, longitudinal datasets that have the potential to answer questions related to mental health. Do you know a dataset that could be part of the project? Let us know!

We looked for datasets:

  • Drawn from different sectors, such as academic, government, healthcare, education and industry

  • From any discipline, including those focused on specific health problems, economic and social outcomes, occupational cohorts and beyond

  • That are established or planned within the next three years (must be funded already)

  • Include, or have potential to include, mental health data

  • From teams that are active and in contact with the participants, or plan to collect new data in the future

If you know of a dataset that could be relevant and is not included in our list, please fill in this form to let us know. Please add as much detail as needed, all fields are optional.
