Living Lab at the Black Dog Institute careers

The Living Lab is a new way to engage with young people to help identify the causes of mental illness. We're building an innovative mobile platform that can capture subtle changes in behaviour and cognitive function and help us build new predictive models.

And we're combining this with a social innovation lab to explore with young people what these data might mean and how we can use them to prevent mental illness before it ever starts.

The proportion of young people being diagnosed with a mental illness has increased substantially in recent years. A reactive approach is no longer enough. We're on a mission to change the paradigm.
