2019年冠状病毒病（COVID-19）大流行对社会的各个方面都有深远的影响，包括心理健康和身体健康。我们探讨了Covid-19的心理，社会和神经科学效应，并为心理健康科学研究制定了直接的优先事项和长期策略。这些优先事项是由公众调查和英国医学科学院召集的专家小组和心理健康研究慈善机构MQ：转变心理健康的专家小组的启发。敦促英国研究资助机构与研究人员，有经验的人以及其他人合作，以建立一个高级协调组，以确保解决这些研究优先事项，并允许确定新的研究优先事项 时间。维持高质量研究标准的需求是必须的。国际合作和全球视角将是有益的。一个直接的优先事项是收集有关COVID-19患者的COVID-19大流行以及脑功能，认知和心理健康的高质量数据。迫切需要进行研究，以解决在大流行条件下如何减轻弱势群体的心理健康后果，以及在Covid-19围绕Covid-19的反复媒体消费和健康消息的影响。需要对机械驱动的干预措施的发现，评估和完善，以解决大流行的心理，社会和神经科学方面。面对这一挑战将需要跨学科和部门的整合，应与具有生活经验的人一起完成。需要新的资金来满足这些优先事项，并且可以通过英国领先的基础设施有效利用它。该立场论文提供了一项策略，该策略既可以适应其他国家 /地区的研究工作。
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic is having a profound effect on all aspects of society, including mental health and physical health. We explore the psychological, social, and neuroscientific effects of COVID-19 and set out the immediate priorities and longer-term strategies for mental health science research. These priorities were informed by surveys of the public and an expert panel convened by the UK Academy of Medical Sciences and the mental health research charity, MQ: Transforming Mental Health, in the first weeks of the pandemic in the UK in March, 2020. We urge UK research funding agencies to work with researchers, people with lived experience, and others to establish a high level coordination group to ensure that these research priorities are addressed, and to allow new ones to be identified over time. The need to maintain high-quality research standards is imperative. International collaboration and a global perspective will be beneficial. An immediate priority is collecting high-quality data on the mental health effects of the COVID-19 pandemic across the whole population and vulnerable groups, and on brain function, cognition, and mental health of patients with COVID-19. There is an urgent need for research to address how mental health consequences for vulnerable groups can be mitigated under pandemic conditions, and on the impact of repeated media consumption and health messaging around COVID-19. Discovery, evaluation, and refinement of mechanistically driven interventions to address the psychological, social, and neuroscientific aspects of the pandemic are required. Rising to this challenge will require integration across disciplines and sectors, and should be done together with people with lived experience. New funding will be required to meet these priorities, and it can be efficiently leveraged by the UK's world-leading infrastructure. This Position Paper provides a strategy that may be both adapted for, and integrated with, research efforts in other countries.
