The Institute of Geriatric Psychiatry of Weill Cornell has three studies that are currently funded through the ALACRITY Grant and conducted under the supervision of Dr. Jo Anne Sirey. All three ALACRITY funded studies focus on behavioral interventions for depression in older adults. These studies incorporate mobile phone technology to further support older adults. The ALACRITY funded studies work to meet older adults where they receive care: in primary care settings, senior centers, and social work agencies.
