In her writing for The Washington Post, Pulitzer Prize winning reporter Amy Ellis Nutt reveals the newest findings and the latest tools as scientists try to unravel the mysteries of what’s been called the most complex object in the universe: the human brain.

Her "Brain Hacking" project, which we present here, looks at a few of the most innovative approaches researchers are taking to combat the worldwide scourge of mental illness. From transcranial magnetic stimulation and near-infrared light therapy for depression, to the use of a common antibiotic for the obsessive compulsive disorder, these stories explore the scientists – and the patients — who are pushing beyond the boundaries of psychiatry and neuroscience to find new ways to help our mental health.
