The UCSF Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences Grand Rounds series (course number MGR21074) 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.
Events are held on Tuesday mornings from 8:30–9:30 a.m. PST/PDT. All events will be held online via Zoom for the foreseeable future in accordance with the UCSF Interim Policy on Large Events and Gatherings. There is no charge to attend these events, but please keep in mind that they are intended for medical professional audience members only and advance registration is required to receive the necessary Zoom connection information.
