Study Summary

The purpose of the study is to identify brain biomarkers and characteristics that predict individual responses to treatment of major depression with the antidepressant drug sertraline (tradename Zoloft), a common selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) antidepressant. Our central hypothesis is that brain activity and connections jointly measured with functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and electroencephalogram (EEG) will be able to predict an individual's response to sertraline treatment.

Primary Outcome

Standardized clinician-administered measure of depression symptom severity. Scores range from 0-52. Lower scores indicate less depressive symptomatology, and so are the more desirable.
