About This Study:
We are university-based clinicians and scientists dedicated to studying postpartum depression (PPD). Our goal is to find a genetic link to its cause - allowing us to develop new treatments, using your mom genes to fight PPD. If you’ve had a child, and think you may have suffered PPD, we need your help.

How it Works:
This app will guide you through questions about childbirth, mood and anxiety symptoms after you gave birth. Based on your answers, you may be considered eligible to participate, at which point we’ll mail you a spit kit to collect a saliva sample for genetic analysis.
