Career
=Research focus/interests=
Goodwin's research focuses on the neurobiology of mood disorders, notably bipolar disorder and its treatment.

Goodwin's findings on the impact of depression on brain tissue and memory have led to greater interest in neurogenesis when developing antidepressants as well as the role of cognition in the treatment of depression.
Goodwin was the principal investigator of many clinical trials for treatments of bipolar affective disorder, including the BALANCE, CEQUEL, and OXTEXT studies. He serves on the advisory boards of many biopharmaceutical companies including AstraZeneca and Pfizer.
