Our Clinical Grand Rounds series continues with a special presentation on expanding telepsychiatry in the digital age by Dr. Gina Perez, Dr. Perez is Assistant Professor of Psychiatry and the Associate Chief of the UPMC Behavioral Health Network and Telepsychiatry Services. Telepsychiatry is an accepted modality for delivering psychiatric care and continues to emerge as a solution for improving access in underserved regions.

Join your colleagues at the first eBRAIN Journal Club of the new year on January 10, 2020! This session will focus on the application of advanced methods of neuroimaging and epidemiology to understand normal brain aging across the lifespan based on the following article:

Dr. Zhengwu Zhang is an Assistant Professor of Biostatistics, Computational Biology, and Neuroscience at the University of Rochester. After receiving his PhD in statistics at Florida State University, he completed postdoctoral fellowships at the Statistical and Applied Mathematical Sciences Institute (SAMSI) and at Duke University. His primary research interests lie in developing statistical methods for high-dimensional “objects" with low-dimensional underlying structures, such as images, surfaces, contours, and networks.

Dr. Andrea Goldstein-Piekarski is a Clinical Assistant Professor in Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at Stanford and an Investigator within the Sierra-Pacific Mental Illness Research, Education and Clinical Center (MIRECC) at the Palo Alto VA. Her research aims to harness findings from trans-disciplinary clinical research that leverage her unique background in human brain imaging, computational methods, clinical psychology, and sleep research to improve the way we diagnosis and treat psychiatric disorders.
