The New Treatment Initiative: A Program to Bring New Treatments to the Doorstep of Patient Care
MEET THE 2020 DEFEATING DEPRESSION AWARD WINNERS
The COVID pandemic has underscored the urgency of the Hope for Depression Research Foundation’s (HDRF) mission to improve the clinical treatment of major depression and anxiety.
In May 2020, HDRF announced an open, competitive process to find the most promising new treatments emerging from university laboratories across the country.
We have selected four projects now in pre-clinical studies that are ready to move to the clinic, for pilot testing in humans.
