Marie Åsberg (born 1938) is a Swedish psychiatrist.
In a pioneering 1976 paper,[1] Åsberg found a link between low serotonin and violent suicide.
[2] Åsberg is an expert on exhaustion disorder and burnout, and the need for self-care.
She has developed the concept of an 'exhaustion funnel', to illustrate the way in which preoccupations can be narrowed by over-concentration on work.
[3] She was the 2022 recipient of the ECNP Neuropsychopharmacology (ENA) Award, which recognises exceptional research achievements in applied and translational neuroscience.
