Information Session: McLean Hospital

The Geriatric Psychiatry Research Program, directed by Dr. James Ellison, addresses cutting edge research questions in the areas of dementia and mood disorders using new neuroimaging techniques, clinicopathological correlations, and other study methods. Current studies include a number of Sponsor-led Alzheimer’s Disease clinical drug trials, longitudinal analyses of older adults with depression and bipolar disorder, and neuroimaging studies focused on oxidative stress in geriatric depression.

This internship is geared towards students interested in gaining both clinical and research experience. Our interns are expected to be able to interact directly with patients in our studies.
