2015-2016 Grand Rounds Speakers

The Department of Psychiatry Grand Rounds series seeks to promote excellence and quality in clinical care; introduce clinicians to recent advances in medical care; provide updates on scientific advances that affect the practice of medicine; and provide a forum for discussion of topics that strengthen the relationship of psychiatry to the broader community. Each year, we invite expert researchers, clinicians, and educations from around the world to speak to our faculty and trainees, and share their expertise and knowledge.

The following speakers visited us during the 2015-2016 academic year:
