Pattie's background is in the areas of public engagement and digital interventions to improve adolescent and youth mental health. She is also currently a Project Director at Sangath (India) with the PRIDE research programme, the largest adolescent mental health research programme ever undertaken in a developing country, where she leads the design and evaluation of digital mental health intervention for school-going adolescents in low resource settings. Pattie also leads It’s Ok To Talk (www.itsoktotalk.in), a national anti-stigma campaign for young people’s mental health. As part of this initiative, Pattie currently leads a new Wellcome Trust funded project, “Mann Mela”, that is setting up awareness-building immersive media museums for youth mental health in five cities across India.
