Grand Rounds

2008-2009

Goal of Grand Rounds: To provide the highest-quality continuing education for clinical staff, house officers, and medical students within the Department of Psychiatry and for other interested persons in the general medical community.

Mission Statement:

We intend to present unbiased, scientifically-based information relevant to the practice of Psychiatry.

The UNMC Psychiatry Department in conjunction with the Creighton University Psychiatry Department present Grand Rounds on alternating weeks. Presenters are selected from our own faculty and residents, as well as outside speakers from around the country. Topics are selected based on their interest to our audience. Every effort is made to avoid commercial bias in Grand Rounds presentations.
