In this episode of Better Thinking, Nesh Nikolic speaks with Dr Stevan Nikolin about understanding how depression affects brain activity and how this knowledge is being used to develop new treatments and improve existing ones.
Dr Stevan Nikolin is a Neuroscience Fellow at the Black Dog Institute, specializing in the intersection of brain activity and depression. As both a neuroscientist and clinical researcher, his work focuses on developing and optimizing treatments for depression, including non-invasive brain stimulation, ketamine, and psilocybin. His research also explores the enhancement of cognitive functions through brain stimulation and cognitive electrophysiology (EEG).
Additionally, Stevan applies EEG techniques to uncover deeper insights into the pathophysiology of clinical disorders like depression, aiming to drive innovation in mental health treatment.
