Dr. Raison received the Raymond Pearl Memorial Award from the Human Biology Association “in recognition of his contributions to our understanding of evolutionary biocultural origins of mental health and illness” and has been recognized as a “Faculty of Excellence” at University of Wisconsin-Madison.

Three Learning Objectives:
  1. Describe evolutionary forces that have maintained genetic risk factors for depression in human populations.
  2. Explain how inputs that signaled survival and reproductive success in ancient environments have been repeatedly accessed across human history to induce states of emotional and physical well-being and stress-resiliency.
  3. Describe how biological/psychological processes employed by ancient practices are being repurposed as novel treatments for major depression and other stress-related conditions.
