Approximately one out of four people will suffer from one of these disorders during their lifetime. And, unfortunately, the treatments available today only help half of sufferers, and it is often necessary to resort to trial and error to find the right treatment. We thus need reliable, objective, valid indicators that allow us to predict from the outset the body\u2019s response to a treatment. Only by doing this will we be able to recommend the right treatment to each patient.<\/p>\n<\/div><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/imardgroup.com\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/cfce6542-d738-4f99-9431-c6b383f27649.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-395 size-full\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"110\" src=\"https:\/\/imardgroup.com\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/4925274-e1759143848375-1024x110.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-565\" style=\"width:633px;height:auto\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text is-stacked-on-mobile\" style=\"grid-template-columns:21% auto\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/imardgroup.com\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-367 size-full\"\/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p>&nbsp; &nbsp; IMARD group\u2019s research has two goals: to identify the changes in the brain involved in mood and anxiety disorders, and to determine the brain mechanisms that predict who will respond better or worse to different treatments.
