Mental health is more than science; it’s community. At WIMR, Dr Carla Haroutonian's research in sleep and early life adversity aims to transform how we prevent and treat conditions like depression, trauma and schizophrenia. Her impact goes beyond the lab, showing that connection is just as vital as discovery. This World Mental Health Day, we celebrate both.
