Timetable & learning outcomes
Course content combined lectures and practical sessions on hot topics in immunopsychiatry, as well as educational workshops on cytokine measurement, maternal immune activation or meta-analysis. The programme was delivered and developed by researchers belonging to the ECNP immuno-neuropsychiatry network.
In addition to the lectures and practical sessions, students and speakers shared lunches and dinners in an environment encouraging exchange and reflection. To faciliate collaboration, a “speed dating” event with each course leader was organised.
