on April 14, 2026 at 2:00pm ET., where Dr. Conor Liston will present findings from a series of parallel studies in preclinical mouse models and in patients with depression aimed at developing new treatment approaches by identifying the cellular and circuit-level mechanisms that initiate and sustain mood-state switches.
