Raine Lecture - Helen Mayberg, MD, FRCP : Rethinking depression and its treatment: Insights from studies of Deep Brain Stimulation |
Other events...
|
Dr Helen Mayberg is a Professor of Psychiatry and Neurology at the Emory University School of Medicine and holds the Dorothy C Fuqua Chair of Psychiatric Neuroimaging and Therapeutics.
Dr Mayberg’s laboratory has systematically examined depression pathophysiology in both psychiatric and neurological patients, as well as mechanisms mediating antidepressant responses to various modes of treatments (medication, cognitive therapy, placebo, DBS). This long-term interest in neural network models of mood regulation in health and disease led to the development of a new intervention for treatment resistant patients using deep brain stimulation, a continued focus of ongoing research.
