Who could benefit from this research

Could help

Adults (roughly 21 years and older) with mood or anxiety disorders who are willing to complete interviews, questionnaires, and behavioral testing are the best fit.

Less likely to help

People under 21, those without mood or anxiety diagnoses, or anyone seeking immediate clinical treatment rather than research participation may not gain direct benefit from joining.

What this research studies

This core helps researchers find and enroll adults with mood and anxiety disorders and collects consistent interview, self-report, and behavioral data across projects. It links those clinical measures with brain circuit and molecular studies to pursue targets that could change disease course. As a participant you may be asked to complete screening interviews, questionnaires, behavioral tasks, and possibly provide biological samples or take part in brain-based testing depending on the linked project. The core supports multiple research projects and pilot studies at the Laureate Institute for Brain Research to make new grants and studies move faster.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this work could speed up discovery of better diagnostic markers and treatments for mood and anxiety disorders by improving recruitment and making study data more consistent.

How similar studies have gone: Recruitment and assessment cores are commonly used and have helped psychiatric research progress, though integrating clinical, circuit, and molecular findings remains an evolving area.
