【Education】
We deliver lectures and clinical practice to introduce knowledge about psychiatry including basic interview methods, classification of mental disorders, consultation-liaison psychiatry or mental disorders including affective disorder, schizophrenia, anxiety disorder, stress-related disorder, organic mental disorder or dementia.
【Research】
We are acquiring MRI and associated clinical data for mood disorders (depression, bipolar disorder), social anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder, schizophrenia, healthy adults, and high-risk subthreshold depression longitudinally through multicenter joint research.
By data analysis using AI technology, we propose a method for differentiating bipolar depression and unipolar depression, a method for predicting treatment responsiveness, and a biotype based on the brain circuit of 5 diseases that often coexist and overlap. We are also conducting research on neurofeedback therapy as a non-pharmacological treatment that efficiently regulates the brain circuit of depression and animal research on the mechanism of neural circuit abnormalities in depression with unfavorable childhood experiences.
