#BAP2024 first known mention of use of ketamine in Psychiatry comes from a paper from Iran which also mostly got the antidepressant dosage right [from Prof Allan Young's talk]
If anyone who has a ticket for the #BAP2024 Gala Dinner isn't going anymore, please give me a DM! Help get an ECR to their first BAP disco 🙏 And please RT!
Prof Catherine Harmer from @OxfordPERL, new President of the @BAPsych talks about her vision for the organisation over the coming years. She also discusses the candidate cognitive mechanisms of ketamine's antidepressant action #BAP2024 Watch: youtu.be/6qmSlFiegtw?si… #BAP2024

Excited for this afternoon #BAP2023 plenary on the concept of "treatment resistant depression" , and the importance of re-conceptualising as "difficult to treat depression" (imagine lots will be relevant in psychosis too!)
Very exciting - and slightly nerve wracking! - to chair a symposium for the first time, but was wonderful to have a set of such great fellow post docs alongside me, and create a set of fascinating research talks.

Wonderful to finally present some of the first results from these studies at #BAP2023 - would have been impossible without such a wonderful team @OxfordPERL over the years, dedicated participants, and support across the department!

Yesterday was the return of a now annual PERL event, hosted by alumni @MBlandhol (our self-named token Norwegian) - the potato race! The sun came out just in time ☀️, competition was fierce 🏃, winners were hotly debated...🏆, and this time the potatoes remained un-smashed! 🥔
We are still enjoying talking to you all about our exciting research. Still time to come on down & visit our stall in Oxford's Westgate Centre!
Come work with us on an exciting project with @MasudHusain @brain_apps @littleneuro exploring the links between neurotransmitter function and motivation and effort-based decision making. Funded by a @wellcometrust discovery award. @OxPsychiatry my.corehr.com/pls/uoxrecruit…
