This is a talk I gave at the IEEE Schenectady Section - 17 MAY Membership Meeting.
The mission of my depression research is to help people figure out what they need to help them get out of a depressed state. That is, finding out what is best for them, not what is best for their doctor, friends, therapist, or anyone else. Depression is now a global problem. In the past 15 years it has gotten worse. Depression is complex; it has a wide range of varying symptoms and degrees of intensity. It can be challenging to determine the best course of action, whether medical treatment is necessary, or which of the many treatments (drug and non-drug) is the best match. Many people who are depressed do not get the help they need, and many people receive medications when they are not necessary. My work aims to bring together tools, technology, scientific and medical data and patient experience to help address depression, both personally and globally.

!Depression is complex and personal.
It requires unbiased multidisciplinary
approach focused on the person.!
!Depression is a global concern. The
Web has global reach and needs to
be explored as a resource for helping
people with depression. !
!Effectiveness may be the same, but!
!patterns differ and order of symptom
improvement matters. !!

What is depression?
Depression is a common mental disorder that presents with
depressed mood, loss of interest or pleasure, decreased
energy, feelings of guilt or low self-worth, disturbed sleep or
appetite, and poor concentration. Moreover, depression often
comes with symptoms of anxiety. These problems can become
chronic or recurrent and lead to substantial impairments in an
individualâs ability to take care of his or her everyday
responsibilities.
At its worst, depression can lead to suicide.
Almost 1 million lives are lost yearly due to suicide, which
translates to 3000 suicide deaths every day. For every person
who completes a suicide, 20 or more may attempt to end his or
her life (WHO, 2012)

Automating Health Data"
Health Web Science is an emerging subfield of Web
Science which looks to understand the increasing
amounts of data from the health and life science
fields.
In order to advance Health Web Science, one
approach is in automating health data.
RPI TWC builds tools to automate data
interoperability across the web
(and therefore the world).

In June 2012, HHS issued the ïŹrst of its seven challenges calling for
developers to make high value health data more accessible to
entrepreneurs, researchers, and policy makers in the hopes of better
health outcomes for all. !
