  The Late Life Depression Research Clinic offers free treatment for depression to individuals who meet criteria for participation in specific research studies. Currently there are protocols examining several types of depression, including atypical depression, dysthymia and melancholia as well as depression with cognitive impairment. A brief telephone interview is conducted to determine eligibility for further evaluation and possible treatment at the clinic.
