Leah Zipperstein from ISPYCincy.com wrote, “The party is the equivalent of stepping onto an all-inclusive cruise for a night”.

He is a specialist in the treatment of depressive disorders and psychosis.

He has published over 15 scientific papers and has attracted numerous grants for research on dementia and schizophrenia. He has served on several editorial boards as a peer reviewer.

The Research Institute at Lindner Center of HOPE UpdateThe Research at Lindner Center of HOPE is gearing up for two new studies likely to start in March.

The first is a smoking cessation study. The Brainsway Deep Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (DTMS) device is intended as an aid to smoking cessation. The aim of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of DTMS compared to sham treatment as an aid to smoking cessation in chronic, heavy (>10 cigarettes/day) cigarette smokers in a randomized, prospective, 4 month, double blind, multicenter study design.

The second study is a new depression study. This is a randomized, placebo-controlled, single-dose study examining a novel NMDA receptor functional partial agonist (NR 1074) in the treatment of major depressive disorder. Potential candidates will be males and females, ages 18-56, experiencing moderate symptoms of depression for at least 8 weeks prior to study start.
