Laura Bechtiger from the Risk & Resilience research area at the Jacobs Center receives a Swiss National Science Foundation Postdoc.Mobility grant.
Congratulations to Dr. Laura Bechtiger from the Risk & Resilience research area at the Jacobs Center on receiving a Swiss National Science Foundation Postdoc.Mobility grant for her project, “Documenting and Understanding Homo- and Heterotypic Patterns of Mental Health Problems Across Generations.” Starting June 1, 2025, she will begin her research in the Department of Psychiatry at the University Medical Center Groningen, Netherlands.
Dr. Bechtiger’s project aims to deepen our understanding of the intergenerational transmission of mental health issues and uncover the mechanisms that drive these patterns. As part of her research, she will collaborate with the Dutch Population Registers, the LifeLines Cohort Study, and the Tracking Adolescents’ Individual Lives Survey (TRAILS).
This is an exciting opportunity to learn about and contribute to new research on mental health across generations, and we extend our best wishes to Dr. Bechtiger on this important endeavor!
