 Biography   Martin B. Keller, M.D. Mary E. Zucker Professor and Chairman Department of Psychiatry and Human Behavior Brown Medical School Dr. Keller has made fundamental contributions to standardized, verifiable methods for assessing time to recovery, relapse, recurrence and chronicity of episodes of mood and anxiety disorders, and the level of symptomatology and well-being over time. These have been integrated with concurrent assessment of psychosocial functioning, morbidity and mortality, and psychopharmacologic and psychosocial treatments received by patients when ill and when well. A major advance was the Longitudinal Interval Follow-Up Evaluation (LIFE), which prospectively assesses psychopath-ology over time and has been used in over1,000 research programs internationally. Dr. Keller serves as executive psychiatrist-in-chief at the seven Brown-affiliated hospitals. He and his colleagues have long-term studies underway involving over 950 adults with mood disorders, a project ongoing for over 30 years; and studies with several hundred adults with anxiety disorders and with children and adolescents with bipolar disorder. He directs multi-institutional clinical trials investigating the safety and efficacy of antidepressant agents and psychotherapy with bipolar and unipolar illness and several multi-site studies of treatments of chronic and recurrent depression. A member of NARSAD’s Scientific Council since 2003, Dr. Keller received NARSAD’s Selo Prize for Outstanding Achievement in Depression Research in 1998 (re-named the Falcone Prize for Outstanding Achievement in Affective Disorders Research in 1999). |
