Matias Palva, professor of neuroscience at Aalto University, wants to treat depression in a different way.
A large number of depressed people have impaired intellectual functioning. The problem is rarely talked about and is not adequately treated, says the professor of neuroscience.
Mthe installation deteriorates the ability to function at worst, so that even getting out of bed is not possible.
In the background, there is a mechanism that rarely comes up when talking about depression: depression makes you stupid.
Professor of neuroscience at Aalto University Matias Palva has been developing a new treatment for the problem, a video game.
