We’re running a webchat on Wednesday evening at 9pm with Professor Ed Bullmore about depression. Prof Bullmore’s book: The Inflamed Mind offers a breakthrough in our understanding of depression by presenting a link between depression and inflammation of the body and brain. He believes this new research will revolutionise the treatment of depression.
Worldwide, depression will be the single biggest cause of disability in the next 20 years, yet treatment for it has not changed much in the last three decades. Professor Bullmore’s breakthrough research challenges this and shows we need to look at new approaches to the treatment of depression.
Edward Bullmore is Professor and Head of the Department of Psychiatry, University of Cambridge. He is a world expert in neuroscience and mental health, who is leading the development of new anti-inflammatory drugs for depression in partnership with industry. Find out more about his background on the website, The Inflamed Mind
