EP142 Depression, Dementia & The Brain | Professor David Barton

Today's episode covers all things mood and memory disorders from the neurological perspective.   My guest is Professor David Barton who specialises in general adult and geriatric psychiatry with a particular interest in neuropsychiatry, acquired brain injury and the association between depression and cardiovascular disease.  I thought given how many episodes I have spoken with people who have experiences depression and mood disorders it would be a new perspective to speak to someone in the medical and neurological realm...   David and I discuss the varying degrees of mood disorders from lack of interest through to Major Depressive Disorder and Psychotic Depression and cover some of the treatment options available and how they have evolved, before moving onto memory disorders such as Dementia and Alzheimer's Disease.
