NCT ID NCT05630963

Summary

This study aims to understand how depression affects the brain and decision-making. Researchers will use MRI and PET brain scans, along with blood tests and behavioral tasks, on 228 adults with current or past depression. The goal is to identify brain patterns that might predict future depressive symptoms, not to test a new treatment.
