Drury Depression Institute Launch Event

This gathering marks an important milestone—the launch of the first institute in the country to formally unite multiple schools in a coordinated effort to address depression. By bringing together leaders across medicine, engineering, biological sciences, public health, and social ecology, the Institute fosters a new level of interdisciplinary collaboration.

Join us for a day of scientific exchange, collaboration, and forward-looking discussion. The program will feature leading experts exploring topics from early life adversity and adolescent mental health to neurobiology, emerging technologies, and the social determinants of health, along with a keynote address by Conor Liston (Weill Cornell Medicine).

More than a series of presentations, this convening is designed to catalyze collaboration and accelerate the translation of discovery into meaningful improvements in care and prevention.
