E309 Dr. Jonathan Flint, FRS, is a British behavior geneticist and psychiatrist, and Professor in Residence in the Dept. of Psychiatry and Biobehavioral Sciences at UCLA. He is co-director of the UCLA Depression Grand Challenge, working to “cut the burden of depression in half by 2050.” Depression is a global health crisis, with a staggering one million suicides per year. It’s a race against time to find solutions to properly manage, and perhaps one day end, this insidious and pervasive problem affecting every one of us, or someone we know (or, both). Note: Dr. Flint and his team are looking for study participants. Check out Hey Human Links page for details. TW: Depression, Suicide
