Why We Lose Energy and Motivation in Depression- Insight from Dr. Rezaul Hamid I Viatris CME Lecture
🧠 Energy, Motivation & Interest (EMI) in Depression | Dr. Rezaul Hamid | Viatris CME Webinar
Depression is more than sadness — it disrupts energy, motivation, and interest (EMI), the neurobiological core of purposeful life.
In this academic webinar, Dr. Rezaul Hamid, Psychiatrist and Founder-Director of Mindcare Neuro Psychiatry Research Centre (Assam), examines how dopamine, serotonin, and noradrenaline circuits explain residual symptoms, anhedonia, and recovery patterns.
This Viatris-supported CME session highlights:
• Dopaminergic dysfunction in residual symptoms
• EMI as a marker for remission and functional recovery
• Translational insights on Sertraline and other antidepressants
• The shift from symptom control to functional restoration
🎥 Professionally recorded and edited for continuing medical education.
Ideal for psychiatrists, psychologists, and mental-health clinicians seeking evidence-based understanding of depression’s circuitry and treatment advances.
