Is computational psychiatry more than a buzzword? This talk will explore how computational psychiatry can capture psychotic symptoms across species and facilitate biological investigations into psychosis. I will present a computational-behavioural approach for measuring hallucination-like perception in humans and mice, which has helped to elucidate a causal neural circuit mechanism relevant to psychosis. I will conclude by discussing the tremendous opportunities that arise from using computational psychiatry to unlock the toolkit of biological science for psychiatry.
