COURSE INFO


"I am pleased to announce the first Institute of Brain Medicine Certificate Course in Psychopharmacology to be held in Manila July 23-25, 2012 in conjunction with the Philippines Psychiatric Association. This course will cover basic knowledge as well as new advances related to the use of common drugs for brain disorders. All clinicians and clinical scientists working or interested in brain disorders, family physicians, psychiatrists, geriatricians, neurologists, pediatricians and gastroenterologists will find this course useful. This course will be taught by Professors Brian Leonard, Joseph Zohar and Siu Tang. The course style, as for all previous programs taught by the three professors, will be highly interactive with the aim of facilitating internalization of the new material. Registrants are expected to be participatory and ready to be challenged in the three day course. We look forward to seeing you in Manila."
