There are lots of treatments for depression, but none of them work as well as we would like. This has prompted an interest in other approaches to treatment that might be useful. One candidate pharmacological treatment is dopamine agonist medications (such as pramipexole). In this talk I will describe a study that has investigated how these agents might work in depression. This study uses computational modelling and neuroimaging. I will try my best to convince the audience that, rather than just being bafflingly complex techniques completely divorced from clinical reality, these techniques can actually tell us something interesting about treatment mechanisms in psychiatry.
