    The Psychotherapy Award for Academic Excellence

    Dear Faculty,

    Time can pass quickly in a Program as full and demanding such as ours. We have an important opportunity to once again formally pause and reflect on our work in considering nominating one of our colleagues for The Psychotherapy Award for Academic Excellence. This award, established in 2001, is intended to recognize outstanding contribution by an individual to the Psychotherapy Program. The scope of this contribution can be reflected in any of the activities of the Psychotherapy Program, including teaching and education, psychotherapy research, program development, clinical scholarship or creative professional development. Recognition should be provided to individuals across the entire collective of our work and not be limited to contributions that represent a "lifetime achievement". In this way, excellence, passion and commitment, in whatever guises, to the academic endeavour of psychotherapy will be more apparent.

    Please see the attachment for guidelines on nominating one of your colleagues for this prestigious award.

    Harvey Stancer, MD, PhD
    Professor Emeritus of Psychiatric Research
     

    “Foundations of Research: An Historical Perspective.”

    Dr. Stancer was born in Toronto and received a B.A. and PhD for his chemical synthesis of phospholipids. After receiving his M.D. in Toronto he interned in New York. Subsequently, as a McLellan fellow in London England he published in the Neurochemical field. He then completed his clinical training in Psychiatry at the Columbia Presbyterian Hospital in New York. In 1961, he returned to Toronto and was appointed chief of the Research Ward and subsequently was awarded an MRC Scholarship to help set up Neurochemical Laboratory Research as well as clinical research and aid in part of the planning of the anticipated Clarke Institute. He was licensed to practice Medicine in Ontario, Texas and California. Over the next 25 years in Toronto, as the first Professor of Psychiatric Research he was involved in major developments in clinical and laboratory research as well as the training of psychiatric residents and supervision of MSc and PhD students. His work has been reported in at least 75 publications in peer reviewed journals as well as a like number of invited lectures internationally. Among other firsts, Dr. Stancer and his colleagues published a possible genetic role in mood disorders. Also, he initiated with others the first Psychiatric Research Foundation. Latterly, while still at the University of Toronto, he was a Visiting Professor at UCLA for one third of each year.

    New CIHR policy on Funding Acknowledgement

    Dear colleagues,

    As of January 1, 2008, CIHR has implemented a new regulation that mandates acknowledgement of CIHR grant numbers in all publications (see below). Non-compliance may result in CIHR not recognizing CIHR-funded publications for the purposes of grant review.

    "The Funding Reference Number is a 5 digit number that identifies a unique research grant. You can find this number in the letter sent to you from CIHR that acknowledges your successful grant application. When acknowledging CIHR support in peer-reviewed publications you are required to cite this number."

    Please ensure that all members of your department are made aware of this important change in policy.

    Mount Sinai Psychotherapy Institute (MSPI):

    Cognitive Behavioral Analysis System of Psychotherapy (CBASP)

    The Mount Sinai Psychotherapy Institute (MSPI) is pleased to announce an upcoming workshop on Cognitive Behavioral Analysis System of Psychotherapy (CBASP) which will be taught by Drs. Sian Rawkins and Molyn Leszcz.  CBASP (McCullough) is the only psychotherapeutic model developed specifically for the treatment of chronic depression. It is a time-limited manualized approach whose effectiveness has been validated through large scale research trials (NEJM 2000). Its aims are to help the chronically depressed adult to break through the self-perpetuating cycle of disconnection from the environment, so that their behavioral consequences can better inform their interpersonal behavior. Through active use of the therapeutic relationship, goals include helping the patient generate empathic behavior and heal interpersonal trauma.  

    Enrolment will be limited to 30 participants and the format will include interactive teaching and demonstration of techniques with standardized patients held over two weekends in April and June of 2008 (April 25 and 26, June 20 and 21).  This will be enhanced with two months of case based learning and group consultation through our electronic list-serve.  This workshop can be taken on its own or, by application, as part of the advanced training of the MSPI Psychotherapy Certificate Programme .

    For further information and registration, please see the attached flyer or contact Janissa Wan:  JWan@mtsinai.on.ca at 416-586-4800 x5185.

    War, Immigration and Trauma

    Friday May 16 - Saturday May 17, 2008

    This year CPAD focuses on understanding the incomprehensible: war. What is fortunately so far from our safe shores here in Canada, is embedded in the past and in the internal representations of many of our new citizens. Our challenge is to help. This year CPA brings together speakers who have first hand experience of the forces that overwhelm the capacity to cope and those who work on restoring organization within families, individuals and social systems. Psychotherapy and healthy child development are unworkable inside a system that does not support them. We focus too on how our own policies and practices support or harm those who seek refuge here.

    Once again the format for CPAD has changed as we experiment to deliver expertise and information most relevant to your work and to your patients and clients. Olara Otunnu is the first CPAD speaker who is not a mental health professional. His international credentials and experience speak for themselves. Cecile Rousseau brings a remarkable professional track record and approach to treatment for those who have been psychologically injured. This year for the first time we have invited a panel of experts to provide brief headlines about their work; to tell us about the issues closest to their hearts. We have also invited the community to join us; social groups and agencies who work with survivors of war and torture will exhibit their work.

    Our intention is to foster awareness, knowledge and discussion. We hope to see you here.

    Jean-Victor P. Wittenberg (Chair CPAD)

    Keynote Speakers

    Mr. Olara. A Otunnu, President of LBL Foundation for Children, and Special Representative of the United Nations Secretary-General for Children and Armed Conflict 1998-2005.

    Dr. Cecile Rousseau, MD, of The Montreal Children’s Hospital and the Division of Social and Transcultural Psychiatry at McGill University

    The 2008 Annual Thelma Cardwell Research Day
    June 25th, 2008

    This year, as part of the annual Thelma Cardwell Research Day we have the pleasure of bringing you a world-renowned speaker in the field of mental health. Having garnered the attention of the world during her own struggle with mental illness, our speaker Margaret (Trudeau) Kemper now works to erase the stigma that prevents people from seeking treatment and creates barriers in the workplace.

    Currently 1 in 5 Canadians will be affected by mental illness at some point in their lives, and at any given time, 300,000 Canadians struggle with serious and persistent mental illness. This is an issue of great relevance to rehabilitation professionals. Many individuals facing physical disability find their recovery impacted by the onset of mental illness.

    At the University of Toronto, our research in this area is focused on removing stigma as we identify ways to return these individuals to meaningful lives and employment. We hope you will join with us for this lecture and celebrate the success of our students who will carry on this very important work.

    The Thelma Cardwell Research Day is one of the highlights of the University of Toronto Occupational Therapy program and is highly anticipated in the OT community.  We will also be featuring many important research projects conducted by our graduating students. These innovative projects move forward the study of Occupational Science and Occupational Therapy and include research that explores models of occupational therapy to very applied projects that look at the development of new technologies for people with disabilities.

    We ask you to save the date, and plan to join us for this fascinating lecture about a subject in need of serious attention and research.
