Depression Center Colloquium Series
For health professionals and researchers with an interest in depression and related illnesses.
Learning Objectives
For each Colloquium Series presentation, the learning objectives are:
To help
physicians, researchers, and other health care professionals to increase their
knowledge of the epidemiology, etiology, and treatment of depression. With
greater understanding of recent advances in depression research and new treatment
modalities, clinicians can make more informed decisions regarding patient care
and help to translate research into practice.
All programs run from 11:45 AM - 1:30 PM in the Rachel Upjohn Building auditorium (Garden Level). There is no charge for attendance, and lunch is provided for those who register. For each colloquium, please arrive at 11:45 AM for lunch. The first speaker will begin promptly at 12 PM.
