In 1987, he gained a postdoctoral lecturing qualification with his lecture “The etiological and therapeutic significance of endorphins in endogenous psychosis.” Professor Naber conducted research during two periods at the National Institute of Mental Health, in 1978–1980 and again in 1984–1985. His current research concentrates on long-term neuroleptic treatment, efficacy and side effects of second-generation neuroleptics, and the subjective effects of neuroleptics.

From the reviews of the third edition: "This is the third edition of a book designed to provide valuable information and guidance for clinicians involved in the care of people with schizophrenia and their relatives. ... It is targeted at clinicians (both primary care physicians and psychiatrists), as well as other mental health professionals. ... This is a valuable addition to the psychiatric literature that enables clinicians to quickly obtain current, useful information about schizophrenia treatment."
