Norma Verdolini MD, PhD

Norma Verdolini is currently working as a Psychiatrist, Post-doctoral Fellow at the Institute of Biomedical Research August Pi I Sunyer (IDIBAPS). Motivated by a special interest in mental health, I graduated in Medicine in 2011 and performed a clinical residency in Psychiatry at the University of Perugia (Italy). In 2014 I performed a research attachment at the South Essex Partnership University NHS Foundation Trust in collaboration with the University of Cambridge, UK. In the last year of the specialty (2016), I collaborated with the Bipolar and Depressive Disorders Unit of the Hospital Clínic in Barcelona (Spain) and I got involved in a project that aims to understand the psychiatric correlates of self- or hetero-aggression in bipolar disorder and decided to further my Ph.D. thesis on this topic. After completing my clinical residency, I worked in Italy as a psychiatrist and clinical investigator.
