Professor Andrew Miller
Global expert in biological research of depression
This unique event will bring together world leaders in research on depression, to discuss both classical and innovative ideas to understand this devastating disorder.
The specific theme of the event is whether depression can still be described as a simple disorder of the brain, or rather conceptualised as a series of behavioural and biological changes that spans mind, brain, body and affects both psychological and physical health.
The event will focus in particular on some of the most exciting recent work on the role of inflammation, gut and stress hormones in the development of depression, and how this could help us to improve the lives people suffering with this disorder.
