On the Faculty at the Aaron T. Beck Psychopathology Research Center, Perelman School of Medicine, University of Pennsylvania, Dr. Grant has devoted his career to developing new understandings of schizophrenia designed to dramatically improve the lives of affected individuals and their loved ones. In conjunction with Dr. Aaron T. Beck, Dr. Grant is the co-developer of recovery-oriented cognitive therapy and has conducted a clinical trial to validate it. He has developed innovative group versions of the therapy to improve supported employment outcomes, prevent transition to psychosis in ultra-high risk youth, and promote resiliency and recovery for individuals in an early episode of psychosis. Dr. Grant has developed a milieu version of the treatment and implemented it in long-term hospital units (both civil and forensic) and conjugate living residences in the community. He has helped develop a network that links state hospitals with independent living to promote continuity of care and flourishing for individuals with severe and persistent mental illness in large mental health systems. He and his colleagues have trained mental health personnel in Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, Delaware, New Jersey, and Georgia. He is a coauthor of Schizophrenia: Cognitive Theory, Research and Therapy and the forthcoming Recovery-Oriented Cognitive Therapy for Schizophrenia
