Aperçu du projet

Brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is well recognized for its neuroprotective functions, via activation of its high affinity receptor, tropomysin related kinase B (TrkB). In addition, BDNF/TrkB signaling can be triggered via activation of adenosine 2A receptors (A2aRs), which in turn transactivates TrkB. Evidence suggests that alterations in BDNF/TrkB can…

Aperçu du projet

We are testing a new digital mental health solution for physicians to better manage the treatment of depression. While many treatment options for depression are available, individual responses to treatment vary tremendously. Almost 70% of patients will not recover after their first treatment attempt, forcing them to undergo an often…

Aperçu du projet

Postpartum mental health problems, including depression and anxiety, affect 15-20% of people and are a serious public health concern. Untreated postpartum mental health problems can be long-lasting, and lead to behaviour problems, brain changes, and risk for later mental illness in children. Rates of postpartum depression and anxiety are very…

Aperçu du projet

Major depression is among the most common and most burdensome human diseases worldwide. While there are several existing treatments, overall current treatments are modest in their efficacy. Over the past few decades, there has been significant development in the field of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) to treat depression. TMS protocols…
