PURPOSE OF THE STUDY
Scientific evidence has shown a link between inflammation and depression. We also know that stress alters the immune system, and that the immune system may be important in the link between stress and depression.
This study aims to develop a blood test which can identify how immune cells in the blood are altered in depression so that, in the future, we can offer people experiencing depression more personalised care and treatments, depending on their blood test results
