Network Neurofeedback Using 7-Tesla MRI to Reduce Rumination Levels in Depression
Patients with major depressive disorder (MDD) exhibit increased levels of rumination (i.e.
repetitive thinking and focus on negative mood states) which have been found to increase the
risk of depressive relapse. The ability to reduce rumination levels among these pa...

DBS for TRD With the Medtronic Percept PC
Of the estimated 30 million Americans who suffer from Major Depressive Disorder, approximately 10% are considered treatment resistant. Deep brain stimulation (DBS) to a region of the brain called the subcallosal cingulate (SCC) is an emerging strategy for treatment resi...

Invasive Decoding and Stimulation of Altered Reward Computations in Depression
Novel invasive neurostimulation stimulation strategies through neurosurgical interventions are emerging as a promising therapeutical strategy for major depressive disorder. These have been applied mostly to the anterior cingulate cortex, but other limbic brain regions h...

XEN1101 for Major Depressive Disorder
This project is designed to examine the neuronal KCNQ2/3 potassium (K+) channel subtype as a
novel treatment target for mood disorders through the administration of the KCNQ-selective
channel opener XEN1101 (Xenon Pharmaceuticals).

Real-time Biofeedback With 7-Tesla MRI for Treatment of Depression
Previous research has shown that modulation of a brain region in rodents, the ventral
tegmental area (VTA), improves depressive symptoms. Human research has also shown that VTA
self-modulation using 'biofeedback' is feasible and successful in healthy volunteers. Thi...
