The Psychology Lab is part of INAB, CERTH and it is a growing, multidisciplinary team (health and clinical psychologists, a medical doctor, a mathematician and a healthcare informatics engineer), which is led by Dr Christina Karamanidou (Health Psychologist, PhD) since it was founded in 2016. One of the core goals of the Psychology Lab is to bridge the gap between research excellence and practice in Life Sciences by undertaking research and interventions that meet patients’ and HCPs’ needs. The Psychology Lab is dedicated to evidence-based practice, by empowering patients and HCPs and facilitating person-centred care. The Lab is in close collaboration with major EU organizations (e.g. European Research Initiative for CLL - ERIC, European Hematological Association), patient organizations (e.g. Lymphoma Coalition, ELLOK) and pharmaceutical companies (e.g. Gilead Sciences, AstraZeneca Global). This allows the Lab to co-ordinate and lead the development of national and international projects while working together with foremost experts in their field. The team has experience with a great variety of research projects, and working with different patient groups such as people with cancer, and other non-communicable such as functional somatic disorders and communicable diseases such as HIV. Overall, the Psychology Lab renders the point of view of health psychology as an integral part of healthcare processes in chronic diseases and creates a strong, psychology-driven, multi-disciplinary lab with expertise in the empowerment and quality of life of people with chronic diseases.
