Overview

Jason D. Cooper is a researcher affiliated with AstraZeneca in the United Kingdom, focusing on medicine, psychology, and neuroscience. Their main fields of study include psychiatry and mental health, experimental and cognitive psychology, biological psychiatry, pulmonary and respiratory medicine, and social psychology.

Their research covers a range of topics with particular emphasis on bipolar disorder and treatment, tryptophan and brain disorders, mental health research topics, mental health treatment and access, adolescent and pediatric healthcare, electrolyte and hormonal disorders, and stress responses and cortisol.

Cooper has contributed to several recent publications, including:

  • A machine learning algorithm to differentiate bipolar disorder from major depressive disorder using an online mental health questionnaire and blood biomarker data, 2021, Translational Psychiatry
  • Metabolomic Biomarker Signatures for Bipolar and Unipolar Depression, 2023, JAMA Psychiatry
  • A Combined Digital and Biomarker Diagnostic Aid for Mood Disorders (the Delta Trial): Protocol for an Observational Study, 2020, JMIR Research Protocols
  • Diagnostic prediction model development using data from dried blood spot proteomics and a digital mental health assessment to identify major depressive disorder among individuals presenting with low mood, 2020, Brain Behavior and Immunity
  • Impact of a Web-Based Psychiatric Assessment on the Mental Health and Well-Being of Individuals Presenting With Depressive Symptoms: Longitudinal Observational Study, 2020, JMIR Mental Health

Frequent coauthors include Jakub Tomasik, Sung Yeon Sarah Han, Giles Barton-Owen, Tony Olmert, and Paweł Eljasz, each having collaborated with Cooper on multiple occasions.

Cooper's work has been published primarily in venues such as Translational Psychiatry, JAMA Psychiatry, JMIR Research Protocols, Brain Behavior and Immunity, and JMIR Mental Health, reflecting an interdisciplinary approach spanning psychiatry, neuroscience, and psychology.
