  • Tryptophan and brain disorders
  • Treatment of major depression
  • Bipolar disorder and treatment
  • Stress responses and cortisol
  • Mental health research topics
  • Functional brain connectivity studies
  • Maternal mental health during pregnancy and postpartum

Notable recent publications by Zanardi and collaborators illustrate the focus on mood disorders and neuropsychiatric conditions. These include:

  • All roads lead to the default-mode network-global source of DMN abnormalities in major depressive disorder, 2020, Neuropsychopharmacology
  • A peripheral inflammatory signature discriminates bipolar from unipolar depression: A machine learning approach, 2020, Progress in Neuro-Psychopharmacology and Biological Psychiatry
  • Rapid response to selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors in post-COVID depression, 2021, European Neuropsychopharmacology
  • Treating bipolar depression with esketamine: Safety and effectiveness data from a naturalistic multicentric study on esketamine in bipolar versus unipolar treatment-resistant depression, 2023, Bipolar Disorders
  • Higher baseline interleukin-1β and TNF-α hamper antidepressant response in major depressive disorder, 2020, European Neuropsychopharmacology

Zanardi frequently collaborates with several researchers, reflecting an active network within clinical neuroscience and psychiatry. Among the main coauthors are Francesco Benedetti, Sara Poletti, Cristina Colombo, Cristina Lorenzi, and Marco Paolini.

Publications by Zanardi often appear in specialized neuroscience and psychiatry journals. Frequent venues for their work include:

  • Neuroscience Applied
  • European Neuropsychopharmacology
  • European Psychiatry
  • Journal of Affective Disorders
  • Psychiatry Research

The body of work contributed by Zanardi is characterized by interdisciplinary approaches to mental health, particularly involving the biological underpinnings and treatment responses of depressive and bipolar disorders. The research covers both clinical interventions and molecular mechanisms, often integrating neuroimaging, pharmacological, and immunological perspectives to better understand disease processes.
