Summary
This study aims to find brain patterns that can predict whether a person with major depression will respond well to the antidepressant sertraline (Zoloft). Researchers will use fMRI and EEG brain scans to measure brain activity and connections in 50 adults with chronic or recurrent depression. Participants will take sertraline for 8 weeks, and their symptom changes will be compared to their brain scan results to identify predictive biomarkers.
