If you've suffered from mood disorders from depression to mania, researchers at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine may want to take a picture of your brain. They're  studying brain imaging in people with mood disorders.

The scientists are looking for two groups of people between the ages of 18 and 45: those with mood disorders now or in the past and healthy people  with no history of mood problems.
 
All participants will have a full psychiatric evaluation and if qualified, will then be asked to complete various tasks, some of which will be conducted while having an fMRI (Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging) scan. The fMRI and all other tasks and questionnaires are non-invasive procedures.

Participants will be compensated for each aspect of the study.

For more information, please call the Functional Neuroimaging Study at (412) 246-5566.
