Merrill Palmer Skillman Institute is pleased to present:

Bart Larsen, PhD, Division of Clinical Behavioral Neuroscience, Institute of Child Development, University of Minnesota

Depression, suicidal thoughts and self-injurious behavior are common during the adolescent years and they represent key risk factors for death by suicide. Multipronged approaches are required to study these complex problems. In this talk, I will review recent research shedding light on the neurobiological underpinnings of suicide risk. I will also discuss concepts relevant to the development of interventions capable of preventing suicide deaths, reducing suffering and helping adolescents to recover and thrive.

Speaker meets with MPSI Fellows and Tainees 1-2 pm.
