Dr Eveline Mu—research fellow at HER Centre Australia and award-winning neuroscientist—shares the latest insights into menopausal depression and PMDD, and how innovative treatments are reshaping women’s mental health care. Dr Mu’s research investigates how hormonal fluctuations, especially in oestrogen and progesterone, trigger mood changes in sensitive women during menopause and PMDD, and why personalised care is urgently needed.

As a close collaborator of our co-host, Professor Jayashri Kulkarni, Dr Mu leads studies on novel hormone therapies (like transdermal estradiol with micronised progesterone), and explores the genetic and epigenetic reasons some women are especially affected. Recognition for her work includes the WHRTN Early and Mid-Career Researcher Award, the Ian Parker Bipolar Research Fund PhD Scholarship, and the Monash University ‘Hidden Gem’ Award for 2025.
