Visiting Professor Lecture Series
Lectures & insights from leaders in children’s mental health.
The Child Mind Institute Visiting Professor Lecture Series invites leaders in the field of child and adolescent mental health to talk about the latest research and treatment protocols. All events are open to the public. This year, lectures will be hosted in-person and online over Zoom. Continuing medical education (CME-CE) credits are available to psychiatrists and psychologists through accreditation with Northwell Health.
These experts have all conducted important research and have extensive clinical experience. They share their findings and expertise on a broad range of topics from anxiety and depression to temper outbursts and the effectiveness of parent-based treatment.
