Note: study recruitment is now closed for this study.
The UCLA Depression Grand Challenge recently launched the Perinatal Mood and Behavior Tracking study, a pilot partnering with the OB/GYN clinic (part of the UCLA Health System).
Because depression affects between 6.5-19.2% of pregnant women and those in the first three months postpartum, this population group is of great interest to explore depression risk factors during pregnancy. In addition to research findings, the study provides an opportunity to test out methods that will be critical for other Depression Grand Challenge studies, such as how to recruit and schedule study assessments in relation to clinical workflows and leverage existing resources for data collection.
