Intro

Welcome Back! We have recently partnered with Psych Congress to bring our audience access to some of their leading speakers and educators, and today's episode is with Dr. Charles Raison, a psychiatrist who has done extensive research on the biological and evolutionary underpinnings of depression, which includes inflammation and the neuroendocrine system.

Dr. Raison co-authored the 2017 book The New Mind-Body Science of Depression with the late Dr. Vladimir Maletic, who sadly passed away in December 2024.
