    Taking mental health outdoors: from prevention to intervention

    Research is increasingly showing the benefits of spending time outdoors on our mental health. These studies are often about adults rather than children and young people, and about how spending free time outdoors can be of benefit. However, there is less known about how and why we might support young people to be outdoors to prevent mental health problems, or in treatment settings if they do have poor mental health.

  • Annual Research Review: Neuroimmune network model of depression: a developmental perspective

    Open Access paper from the JCPP – ‘We have three goals for the present paper. First, we extend neuroimmune network models of mental and physical health to generate a developmental framework of risk for the onset of depression during adolescence. Second, we examine how a neuroimmune network perspective can help explain the high rates of comorbidity between depression and other psychiatric disorders across development, and multimorbidity between depression and stress-related medical illnesses. Finally, we consider how identifying neuroimmune pathways to depression can facilitate a ‘next generation’ of behavioral and biological interventions that target neuroimmune signaling to treat, and ideally prevent, depression in youth and adolescents.’ Robin Nusslock (pic) et al.
