Short description
The Netherlands Study of Depression and Anxiety (NESDA) started in 2004 with the main aim of determining the factors that influence the development and the long-term prognosis of depression and anxiety disorders. In the first talk, Brenda Penninx will present on the Design & Methods of NESDA, including the rich data collection and on achievements of the cohort. In the second talk, Femke Lamers will present various examples where NESDA has been part of multi-cohort analyses of depression and will share experiences, tips & tricks on such multi-cohort collaborations.
