In 2012, King's College London (KCL) awarded him a tenured position and he was granted the Specialist Associateship of the Royal College of Psychiatrists. He has been working with the Outreach Support at South London (OASIS)[3] at South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust as an honorary consultant psychiatrist since 2012.
He is Professor and Chair of Preventive Psychiatry at KCL, Associate Professor at the University of Pavia,[4][5] Head of the Head of Early Psychosis: Intervention and Clinical-detection (EPIC) lab,[6] Academic Lead of the Early Psychosis Workstream of the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) Mental Health Translational Research Collaborative,[7] Chair of the European College of Neuropsychopharmacology Network for the Prevention of Mental Disorders and Mental Health Promotion,[8] and Section Coordinator of the Italian Medical Society of Great Britain.[9]
He is affiliated with the Schizophrenia Bulletin as an Associate Editor[10][11] and formerly as a Section Editor for the Journal of Neurology, Psychiatry, and Brain Research.[12] He also served as an expert advisor for the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual for Mental Disorders.
His research focuses primarily on the early detection and prevention of severe mental disorders such as psychosis or schizophrenia in young people. He is the author of over 500 scientific and medical publications.[13]
Truman Syndrome
editDr. Fusar-Poli has also performed research on the Truman Syndrome, with its symptoms are found before and during the onset of severe mental disorders such as psychosis and schizophrenia.[14] He has suggested that the "Truman explanation" is a result of the patients' search for meaning in their perception that the ordinary world has changed in some significant but inexplicable way.[15][16][17]
