Join us virtually for this years Best Practices for Mood Disorders!

October 8 - 10, 2026 - The Westin Denver Downtown - Denver, Colorado

2026 Best Practices for Mood Disorders, presented by the National Network of Depression Centers (NNDC) in collaboration with Mayo Clinic and supported by CU Anschutz, provides clinically relevant, lifespan focused updates on the management of mood disorders and associated comorbidities.

The course covers evidence-based strategies and clinical pearls related to treatment‑resistant depression and bipolar disorder, as well as emerging and novel therapies for depression. Key topics include optimizing treatment targets such as weight and cardiometabolic health, identifying when to transition from guideline‑driven algorithms to individualized care, and understanding referral considerations for ketamine, TMS, ECT, and psychedelic therapy.

The NNDC faculty includes nationally recognized leaders and active clinicians—psychiatrists, child and adolescent psychiatrists, clinical psychologists, and advanced practice providers (APRN, CNP, DNP, PA‑C)—who bring expertise informed by current research and front‑line clinical experience.

Aligned with the NNDC mission to transform lives through research and innovation in treatment and prevention of depression and bipolar disorders, this course equips clinicians with best practices to enhance patient outcomes across diverse clinical settings.
