Just a friendly reminder about tomorrow night's mock defense by Yulia of her dissertation: "Trajectories of depressive symptoms and illicit drug use: longitudinal temporal associations and co-morbidity in the community sample of adults (the CARDIA Study)"
It will take place at the Mansion:
2600 11th Ave S, Birmingham, AL 35205
... at 7pm
There will be wine, crackers, cheese, fruits and vegetables for your pleasure as we listen to one of our own share in their own original research, and seek much needed critical feedback. Please join us, bring your brains, and nourish your souls through good eats and good deeds.
A little more on Yulia's thesis:
This original work seeks to describe how depressive symptom develop among individuals who never received any mental health treatment. Why in some people depression persist and why in some - it declines over time? How cocaine or opiate or amphetamine use at the different stages of person's life intertwine with depression? And what clinicians can do about that? I will present for 45 min.
See you tomorrow!
Love,
Igor
