A recent study in Nature used precision functional mapping to understand better, at the brain level, the neurobiological mechanisms behind distinct depressive symptoms and mood changes over time.

Cambridge neuroscientists discover five distinct stages of brain development from birth to 90, revealing key turning points ...

A new clinical trial shows that deep brain stimulation (DBS) improved symptoms in half of adults with treatment-resistant ...

Tens of millions of people with depression aren't properly diagnosed. Stanford researchers show that brain imaging could ...

Brains with anxiety, depression, ADHD or conduct disorder tended to have a reduced surface area in regions responsible for processing emotions, responding to threats and maintaining awareness of bodil ...

Symptoms of depression fluctuate over time, but many brain imaging studies of the condition only study one point in time. That’s made it hard to connect networks of brain activity to various symptoms ...

Depression doesn’t mean you’re always feeling low. Sure, most times it’s hard to crawl out of bed or get motivated. Once in a while, however, you feel a spark of your old self—only to get sucked back ...

Scientists have uncovered a biological “blueprint” that shows how the brain’s smallest building blocks create the large networks that drive thought, emotion, and behavior.

A recent clinical trial has shown that it's possible to safely and effectively treat depression at home using a brain stimulation device. That means patients can give themselves low-intensity impulses ...
