The Grand Rounds series at the University of Minnesota's Department of Psychiatry & Behavioral Sciences aims to connect emerging scientific research with practical psychiatric care, creating a dynamic learning environment for healthcare professionals, and is also open to members of the public.

We feature a broad array of speakers who are experts in their fields, brought in to share their latest research findings, clinical experiences, and insights into emerging trends in psychiatry. Each 60 minute presentation is followed by a 30 minute interactive Q&A session. With permission from the speaker, the session is recorded and posted on our department YouTube page shortly after the event has concluded.

  1. Summarize updates in diagnosis, treatment and research for various medical conditions.
  2. Compare diagnostic and treatment options with team members.
  3. Discuss appropriate strategies to address patient or team-based issues.
