RDoC – ABCT -The Delaware Project Webinar

Date

November 17, 2016

The NIMH RDoC Unit, the Delaware Project, and the Association for Behavioral and Cognitive Therapies (ABCT) hosted the first in a series of collaborative webinars. The webinars focus on the science-to-service pipeline in psychology and psychiatry.  The goal is to provide an opportunity for individuals in these various spaces to meet, discuss, and brainstorm pathways and solutions to connect these sectors and provide a unified vision to move the field forward.

The first webinar in this series highlighted the role of fear and anxiety in disorders such as phobias and depression. Presenters discussed these topics from various perspectives including basic laboratory research, treatment in clinics, and graduate school instruction for clinicians.

Upcoming webinars will be scheduled later this year and focus on a variety of other mental health topics including psychosis, developmental disorders, and substance use and antisocial problems.
