In(s) and out(s) of adolescent depression – Trajectories of development and recovery

While the role of biological markers in understanding major depressive disorder (MDD) in adults have been studied extensively, less has been done to identify the biomarkers of MDD development and recovery in adolescence. With the majority of mental health disorders starting in adolescence, identifyi...
