Summary

This study aims to better understand why some young people (ages 18-25) with mood disorders are at risk for suicide. Researchers will combine brain imaging, genetic tests, and microbiome analysis to identify risk factors. They will also test whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called deep transcranial magnetic stimulation (dTMS) can reduce suicidal thoughts and behaviors. The goal is to develop personalized prevention and treatment strategies.
