We have 2 current NIH funded projects. The first is to develop protocols for the prevention of depression following stroke using either pharmacological or psychotherapeutic intervention. We are also utilizing rapid-transcranial magnetic stimulation to treat vascular depression. We also investigate mood disorders following traumatic brain injury.
