Codi RISC research project launches web and intranet

The Codi Risc research project, coordinated by the IMIM Health Services research group and the Neuroscience research group from the Parc Taulí de Sabadell Hospital Consortium, is launching its new website and intranet.

Codi Risc is a research project on the prevention of suicidal behaviour based on the Codi Risc Suïcidi (CRS) programme, which was created and implemented in Catalonia in 2014 by the Catalan Government's Department of Health. The purpose of the Codi Risc project is to study the frequency, as well as the epidemiological, clinical, neuropsychological, and biological risk factors involved in suicide attempts and repeated suicide attempts. It also covers the implementation, effectiveness, and costs of the Catalan Government's Codi Risc Suïcidi programme, as well as the development of personalised suicide risk prediction algorithms aimed at preventing suicidal behaviour.

The website has been designed as a dissemination and outreach tool, to raise awareness of the project and its results. It also provides information about this issue and useful contact details for people at risk of suicide, as well as an intranet section for the project's researchers.  The web design process has been highly collaborative and interactive. The project's researchers, experts in suicide, have been involved in creating the interface as well as organising the information and generating the content. The website can be viewed in Catalan, Spanish, and English at www.codirisc.org.
