In Australia, one in five people experiences mental health symptoms every year. Mental health research is a critical area of discovery that QBI researchers are focussed on and each year QBI hosts a mental health webinar, during Mental health Week, to discuss important topics related to mental health research.
A panel of QBI experts explored the neuroscience of depression, its impact on society, and how research can help pave a successful path into the future at our webinar 'Understanding the brain to treat depression'.
We constantly make choices, but for some people suffering from illnesses such as schizophrenia and substance use disorder – previously referred to as “substance abuse” – making the right choices can be extremely difficult.
Join Queensland Brain Institute researchers as they discuss what is happening in the brains of people with depression, why medications don’t work for some people and alternative treatments for people with depression that don’t respond to medication.
