Our Programme Manager, Dr Jen Martin, is editing a new section called 'Technology Matters’ in the journal 'Child and Adolescent Mental Health' along with Dr Kapil Sayal (CANDAL).

The first article included and published in the 'Technology Matters' section, is an insightful paper about mental health apps, written by Dr Aislinn Bergin and Dr Bethan Davies called: 'Mental health apps – separating the wheat from the chaff'. Aislinn and Bethan are interested in harnessing the potential of technology to make treatment more accessible to children and adolescents. Their paper explores how to judge health apps; discusses the challenges curated app libraries present and highlights the implications for practitioners.
