The host for this talk is Sarah-Jayne Blakemore

Inflammation is strongly associated with mental health disorders, especially depression. However, questions remain about the causal nature of this relationship. Here I will discuss what a causal model of inflamed depression might encompass and I will review selected recent evidence for causality from longitudinal, neuroimaging and epigenetic studies, and from meta-analysis of treatment trials of anti-inflammatory drugs.
