Please join us for the live review of this session at 4:00 EST on Fri Nov 12:

----------------------------------
This workshop, sponsored by ACLP’s Research SIG, will focus on practical steps to begin and sustain a productive C-L Psychiatry research career. It features five inspiring talks on wide-ranging topics - from investigating complex diagnoses, to developing collaborative teams and implementing findings, to obtaining internal support and external funding for projects. Researchers at all stages will find this session helpful. Audience participation in the live discussion is highly encouraged. Dr. Jo Ellen Wilson: How to update cherished (but maybe erroneous) concepts. Drawing from her experience in developing a successful research program in catatonia and delirium, Dr. Wilson will explore difficulties encountered in research that challenges existing diagnostic categories and paradigms. She will discuss the approaches her team took to overcome these challenges. Dr. Elizabeth Madva: How to develop a collaborative research team (when your research overlaps both physical and mental health domains). Much CL research evaluates psychological treatment for those with physical health conditions, but few people have experience working in collaborative and interdisciplinary settings. Dr. Madva will speak about her experience developing psychological interventions for those with irritable bowel syndrome and non-cardiac chest pain, providing insight into developing an integrated and sustainable collaboration across specialties. Dr. Nancy Byatt: How to translate and implement research findings to impact clinical practice and policy (especially when systems don’t want to change). Using perinatal mental and substance use disorder treatment as example, Dr. Byatt will outline patient-, provider- and systems-level barriers and facilitators to changing clinical care. She will outline how to use science to create population-based programs and change policy. She will also explain how population-level programs can be developed, implemented, evaluated, and sustained in real-world settings. Dr. Jeffrey Staab: How to convince your Chair to support your work (especially ones dubious about research in C-L psychiatry). As a department chair with ongoing investigations in C-L psychiatry, Dr. Staab will discuss strategies for garnering departmental and institutional support for research. He will cover tips to communicate successfully with departmental and institutional research leaders and the types of resources that department Chairs have available to support investigators at all levels. Dr. Sherwood Brown: How to obtain external funding (when NIH doesn’t have a section for you). Dr. Brown will discuss differences, and potential tensions, between the committees that review scientific content of research proposals and the people who make funding decisions. He also will provide tips on how to pursue funding for topics that might appear hard, on the surface, for funding agencies to support.
