Brain Stimulation and Decision-making
Recruiting
Decision-making is an important process that is frequently shown to be impaired in patients with depression. While a number of preclinical and clinical studies have identified key regions involved in this process, it remains unclear exactly how these regions are influencing choice behavior especially when choices become more challenging. The goal of this project is to understand how these regions, such as the cingulate cortex, impact difficult choice behavior. Specifically, the researchers are i... Read More

Single-dose Ketamine Treatment to Improve Depression in Mild Cognitive Impairment
Recruiting
Ketamine is a NMDA-receptor antagonist that promotes synapse formation and has been shown to rapidly improve symptoms in depression. Even a single dose of ketamine has been shown to improve depression and cognition with short-term memory, inhibitory control, cognitive flexibility, and processing speed showing improvements within days of treatment. The mechanism behind ketamine's rapid action is not clear but some groups have speculated it may be related to enhanced neuroplasticity, particularly... Read More

Tele-PROTECT Therapy: Effectiveness, Empowerment, and Implementation
Recruiting
The purpose of this randomized trial is to conduct a fully powered effectiveness trial of video-delivered PROTECT (Tele-PROTECT) compared to a video-delivered depression education (DepEd) control condition to be delivered to 140 English- and Spanish-speaking NYC elder abuse victims. Investigators hypothesize three main aims: Effectiveness Aim: Tele-PROTECT participants will have significantly greater and clinically meaningful reductions in depression when compared to the DepEd control; Abuse Im...

Improving Brain Stimulation Through Imaging
Recruiting
Repetitive pulse transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is a noninvasive treatment that involves stimulating the brain; however, treatment benefit depends on placing a TMS coil in the correct place on the head to reach critical brain regions below. Clinicians typically use scalp-based targeting, a process in which rather than using MRI guidance to target brain regions for stimulation, they use landmarks on the scalp. Several researchers, including the investigators' lab, showed that the curren... Read More

Strengthening Community Mental Health
Recruiting
The goal of this clinical trial is to examine the impact of the Communities Organizing for Power through Empathy (COPE) intervention in adults in communities having recently experienced or at risk of experiencing disaster. The main questions it aims to answer are: How does the COPE intervention affect individual mental health? How does the COPE intervention affect protective factors like coping and social support? How does the COPE intervention affect community resilience? How does delivery of... Read More

Resilience in Adolescent Development
Recruiting
The RAD study is a longitudinal study to prospectively characterize the biological mechanisms of resilience in adolescents and young adults at risk for developing depression. The study will capture biomarkers from the domains of socio-demographic and clinical data, cognitive and psychological assessments, fluid-based biomarkers, neuroimaging and EEG. Such biomarkers will compose a human biosignature of resilience and identify risk factors for depression, contributing to effective treatment selec... Read More

Computational Psychiatric Approach to Depression
Recruiting
The purpose of this research is to investigate how the brain changes in patients undergoing electroconvulsive (ECT) treatment for depression. Subjects will be invited to be in this study because (1) they are a patient about to receive ECT treatment for depression, or (2) they are a patient diagnosed with depression and do not qualify for ECT treatment, or (3) they are a healthy adult volunteer with no history of depression. All volunteers must be between the ages of 18-85. Participation in this... Read More
