This is exciting and important science. So proud of our Depression Task Force.

Happy to be a co-author on this study by Carazio-Arias et al implicating the opioid system in the actions of the SSRI fluoxetine. Bridging opioids to stress and depression feels so right. Great fun to collaborate with the @Rene_Hen and other colleagues in the @_HDRF Task Force.
