Biography

Dr Ruchika Gajwani is a Senior Research Fellow in Clinical Psychology and co-director of the Centre of Developmental Adversity and Resilience (CeDAR) at the University of Glasgow. She is an Honorary Consultant Clinical Psychologist within Specialist Children's services, NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde, with a special interest in Cognitive Analytic Therapy.

Engaging substantially in the model of early intervention and prevention, she is leading complex clinical trials in adolescent mental health for some of the most vulnerable and excluded children and young people. With the prestigious MQ fellowship, her current work is focussing on testing community trials for young people with Borderline Personality Disorder features (BRIDGE project). Through partnership working and collaborations, the team is building a research portfolio on innovative solutions, scaling up proven treatments, and ensuring they reach those who need them most. Her research focus for the last twenty years has been on developing pathways for understanding risk and resilience within marginalised, clinical high-risk children and young people. She has conducted genetic, longitudinal and qualitative research on the role of developmental adversities and neurodevelopmental conditions on health outcomes.

Recent and current projects have been funded by the Medical Research Council, NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde, NHS Ayrshire & Arran, CSO – Scotland, UNHCR, MQ, Rosetrees Trust and Why Not Trust.
