Too often, people wait for anxiety and depression to become severe before seeking diagnosis and treatment, making the disorders more difficult to treat, reducing the likelihood of success, and increasing the damaging toll on their families and lives, as well as their medical costs. We wish to show that it is possible, using technology, to catch the downward slide early and begin treating it before it becomes disruptive enough to receive a traditional diagnosis—in other words, we believe that prevention is possible.

Come join Professor Rosalind Picard and her students as they discuss their research on ways to gauge and improve people's mental health.
