„In dem internationalen Forschungsnetzwerk Pronia führen Wissenschaftler aus sieben Ländern die Fallgeschichten von etwa 1600 Patienten mit Kernspinaufnahmen des Gehirns zusammen, um
so etwas wie ein gemeinsames Muster zu finden, das alle Spielarten und Schattierungen der Depression miteinander verbindet.“

The PRONIA project is aiming to develop a personalised prognostic tool for early psychosis management.
Psychoses typically commence in the most productive and critical period of life – late adolescence and early adulthood. In around 75-90 percent of the persons who develop the full-blown illness, there are early symptoms like lacking concentration, mood swings, exhaustion and reduced performance. To date, it is hard to say, whether such a psychological crisis will develop into a psychotic disorder. This is where the European research project PRONIA sets in. The aim of the researchers from five European countries and Australia is to develop an innovative prognostic tool on the basis of self-learning algorithms.
