Want to hear the coolest thing we are working on? We’re launching a groundbreaking UBC pilot study to speed up recovery from depression!

Our approach combines short bursts of physical activity (“snacks”) with a single day of accelerated brain stimulation (bursts of stimulation too!). We believe this combination can prime the brain for faster, stronger results.

Now, we want to take a community-based approach to get this project going. We are giving crowdfundraising a try! Every gift brings us closer to better, more accessible depression treatments.

We measured brain activity with fMRI in people who were about to receive rTMS for depression by doing their very first treatment inside the scanner! The way the brain reacted during that first time was linked to their improvement in a full course of rTMS

When treatments don't work to treat depression, it often indicates a more severe illness. In this infographic, we present a study showing a relationship between number of treatments tried and reduced chances of remission with rTMS.

Does handedness matter when considering #rTMS for #depression? Prior research indicated that perhaps left-handed people might improve more with rTMS. However, research suggests that left and right-handed people improve equally from rTMS

Developing a robust framework for training in Interventional Brain Medicine is of the essence. Here we present an infographic summarizing work developing a competency-based framework for psychiatry residents.

On the whole, the brains of older individuals were less excitable than the brains of younger individuals. It's no secret that our #brain changes as we get older, but this phenomenon is not well-understood. KT-infographic

New research from the CARTBIND Trial, exploring the relationship between sleep and outcomes in #depression. Worse sleep before #rTMS was associated with worse outcomes. Open access to the paper here: tmsjournal.org/article/S3050…

Infographic: on accelerated MST; delivered daily for 6 days to people struggling with severe depression. Most people improved, and there were few cognitive side effects. First study to explore giving MST rapidly to improve depression. @VCHResearch
