Biography
Associate Professor Adrienne O’Neil is the Director of Heart and Mind Research at IMPACT and Deputy Director of Food and Mood Centre. Her co-appointment is funded by the Heart Foundation as part of a Future Leader Fellowship and the Wilson Foundation. She is a behavioural scientist who has been researching the link between mental and cardiovascular health for over a decade. A key part of her work is investigating the role that lifestyle plays in the onset and outcomes of depression and cardiovascular disease, both respectively, in relation to each other and when they co-occur. She works with the team at the Food and Mood Centre to apply learnings from cardiology and other areas of chronic disease prevention and management to psychiatry. Adrienne completed her doctoral training at the School of Public Health & Preventive Medicine, Monash University and international post-doctoral training at Stanford University. Upon her return to Australia, she spent 5 years at the School of Population and Global Health, University of Melbourne. She has over 100 publications and has received 10+ years of Category 1 personnel funding.

Projects
Professor O'Neil leads the following 4 studies:
Is lifestyle therepy as good as psychological care for psychological distress?
Despite evidence that lifestyle therapies are efficacious for a range of mental health conditions, we are often asked by clinicians if it is a suitable alternative to established approaches like psychotherapy. The need to know this was exacerbated by Covid-19 which has seen an increase in depression and anxiety in Victorians, thus putting a greater burden on these existing services.
This 18 month trial was funded by a MRFF grant in partnership with Barwon Health, Diabetes Victoria, GMHBA and Australasian Society of Lifestyle Medicine.
The main aim to is determine whether a group-based, Zoom delivered lifestyle program targeting two pillars (diet and exercise) is non-inferior to a psychotherapy program over 8 weeks for adults with elevated distress.
Recruitment is now closed.

Is lifestyle-based care as good as conventional psychological care for unipolar and bipolar depression?
Lifestyle-based mental care has enormous potential to alleviate the burden on GPs and psychological service providers. Yet there is no evidence that it works in real world settings like primary care as a much-needed alternative to psychological care for patients with clinical mood disorders.
This 5-year trial forms part of the establishment of the Mental Health Australia General Clinical Trials Network (MAGNET) led by Deakin Universitys Prof Michael Berk. https://magnetctn.com/
The main aim of the trial is to test the effectiveness of a GP-referred, group-based lifestyle program targeting four pillars (diet, exercise, sleep & substance/tobacco cessation) for reducing depressive symptoms compared to group-based psychotherapy in 378 adults with unipolar or bipolar depression. Recruitment is now open https://foodandmoodcentre.com.au/projects/the-harmone-trial/
Clinical guidelines for Lifestyle-based Mental Health Care
In 2020, we established an international taskforce to lead the development of the World Federations for the Society of Biological Psychiatry & Australasian Society of Lifestyle Medicine guidelines for lifestyle-based mental health care. Led by Prof O’Neil (Co-Chair), it comprises international experts from USA, Finland, UK, Sth America, Asia and Australia (full list https://www.wfsbp.org/educational-activities/wfsbp-task-forces). These guidelines are designed to provide mental health specialists and non-specialists comprehensive guidance when delivering this care in any setting and are available with key resources here: https://foodandmoodcentre.com.au/resources/
How much of the population burden of mental disorders could be eliminated by targeting lifestyle behaviours?
In Australia as elsewhere, there is no funding mechanism to support a shift from the status quo towards lifestyle targets for the prevention of mental disorders. Policy makers need evidence to show the cost and health benefits to the population if lifestyle factors were a target for mental disorder prevention.
Co-Chaired by Professor ONeil, our main aim is to establish how much of the mental disorder burden would be avoided if lifestyle factors were targeted nationally and globally. This project draws on the renowned Global Burden of Disease (GBD) to generate new evidence that allows the calculation of population attributable risks (PARs)(the proportion of an illness averted if a specific exposure was eliminated) owing to lifestyle risk factors in relation to mental disorders.
