May 30,1998 Dear Colleagues and Guests: Welcome to the 151st Annual Meeting of the American Psychiatric Association. The theme for this meeting, which reflects our determination, vision and concern for every sector of American psychiatry, is: New Challenges for Proven Values: Defending Access, Fairness, Ethics, Decency As we work hard to build a better future for our patients, including children, minorities, the elderly and their families, there are some fundamentals we must keep in mind. Indeed, much of the scientific program addresses these issues. There are sessions on confidentiality, psychiatric education, ethics, the doctor/patient relationship, private practice, economics and managed care, as well as many excellent sessions on the latest developments in research and clinical practice. Two special "Days of Creation" have been planned for Monday and Tuesday, during which several sessions will highlight creativity. On Wednesday, selected sessions will examine "A Time of Violence." I am delighted that our international registration has grown so considerably over the past several years. That so many colleagues from around the world attend our Annual Meeting is a tribute to its high quality and diversity. At this meeting we will have a number of outstanding international guests, including leaders from the World Psychiatric Association, some of whom will make presentations and many of whom will represent their organizations at the Opening Session.

  • Hopsig News and Notes
    HoPSIG News and Notes The newsletter of the Royal College of Psychiatrists’ History of Psychiatry Special Interest Group Issue 5, Autumn 2017 HoPSIG & Archives News Editorial Welcome to all our readers, old and new! HoPSIG had a full house at our spring workshop and our session at the International Congress 2017 was also well attended (abstracts are available on our Meetings page). We intend to continue holding history workshop events three times a year, including at least one meeting outside London, and we are in discussion with the Centre for the History of the Emotions at Queen Mary University of London about making links with academic historians. This is our first issue published exclusively as an e-newsletter, the College’s preferred format for this sort of publication, and we are very grateful to Mark Turner, Digital Content Officer, for setting it up and putting this issue together. We are proud to say that HoPSIG has grown substantially, from a mere 120 people on our mailing list 2 years ago to the current figure of 1000. We are also appealing to trainees, and have three currently on the committee who are all involved in specific projects. As well as accruing interest within our own profession, HoPSIG has also had the pleasure of answering queries about the history of psychiatry from other fields and industries, including historians, radio and television producers, and a novelist. It is fair to say that we have also had a lot of fun, and we hope that you enjoy reading this issue as much as we have enjoyed reading all of your contributions and editing it! Paul Lomax is stepping down from the HoPSIG committee, so we have a vacancy for another trainee.
