Association of European Psychiatrists
UKPPG members run parallel session
Six UKPPG members presented one of the parallel symposia at the 9th Congress of the Association of European Psychiatrists (AEP) in Copenhagen on 23.9.98. For pharmacists to be asked to run a session at AEP was a terrific honour, particularly as it is not common for non-Psychiatrists to do such things. The session was on optimising drug therapy. The session went well, with standing room only. Thanks must go to Chris Sutton from Lundbeck (UK) who supported the venture, by facilitating our attendance, travel and accommodation.
