About us
The PATH lab investigates the bi-directional pathways linking mental and physical health using approaches from epidemiology and health psychology. We are an interdisciplinary research lab, rooted in the UCD School of Psychology, in Dublin, Ireland, within the Psychological Health, Well-being and resilience research theme. Our principal aims are to: Advance the science of comorbidity with research at the intersection of health psychology and psychosocial epidemiology. Identify barriers to health and wellbeing and novel risk factors for ill psychological and physical health. Investigate psychosocial determinants & aspects of health and wellbeing. Identify (bi-directional) pathways linking psychosocial factors and physical health symptoms and conditions. Promote health and psychological wellbeing in the population.

New research from the PATH lab 👇 Amy McInerney Sonya Deschenes
The first paper from my PhD has been published! After 2 months of smartphone-based digital phenotyping, people with type 2 diabetes were significantly more likely (93.9% vs 51.5%), than those without, to say they would be comfortable with their healthcare provider, in a hypothetical future, having access to the kind of data collected (on daily behaviour, mood, and social interactions) to assist in their care. Qualitative responses (examples below) appear to suggest people with type 2 diabetes recognise that the insights digital phenotyping could provide into their daily lived experience could enhance their ongoing health care. The paper also provides details on attrition, missing data rates, tolerability, and issues experienced.
