Psychiatry Lecture Series 2006-2007


The Continuing Education and Community Education Programs

provide lectures, conferences, and symposia to maintain and improve knowledge and skills in patient care, as learning the art and science of medicine is a lifelong task. These programs are directed at not only faculty, students, alumni, and other psychiatrists and mental health care professionals, but also other professionals, including attorneys and teachers, who address psychological and societal issues.
