Study Summary

This project is designed to examine the role of the subgenual anterior cingulate cortex (sgACC) in anhedonia and anxiety in humans with depression, as well as the acute and sustained effects of ketamine on agACC activation and depression symptoms.

Primary Outcome

Subgenual anterior cingulate cortex (sgACC) response to reward measured by the BOLD (Blood Oxygen Level Dependent) signal within the sgACC region of the brain, during an fMRI Incentive Flanker Task in healthy controls and in adults with MDD. BOLD signal is the unit of measure of this outcome.
