Date/Time: June 21, 2022, 12:30 p.m.–2:00 p.m. ET

This webinar examines the neurobiology of depression and mood disorders during the menopause transition and later life. Presenters will share research findings on the role of stressful life events and transdermal estradiol administration on depressive symptoms, including irritability and anxiety, the role of circadian rhythm and sleep changes, and their treatment with sleep and light interventions in mood disorders. In addition, findings on anhedonia and depression in women in later life are examined. Current research findings on the underlying biobehavioral mechanisms that may increase depression and other mood disorders will be presented, focusing on improved treatments or prevention of mental illness in women.

The Office for Disparities Research and Workforce Diversity Webinar Series is designed for investigators conducting or interested in conducting research on mental health disparities, women's mental health, minority mental health, and rural mental health.
