Thank you for celebrating with us!
Our 75th celebrations and activities allowed us to unite as faculty, staff, trainees, alums, department partners, supporters, and community.
We celebrated past accomplishments, reflected on missed opportunities, and imagined what could be possible for the department’s next 25 years.
75th Anniversary Webinar Series | The Past, Present & Future of Biopsychosocial Education, Care, Research and Community Partnership.
How the World Changed UR Psychiatry and UR Psychiatry Changed the World
Developed by George Engel in the early days of our department, the biopsychosocial model has grown to be an internationally recognized approach to understanding health and illness and as a guide to proper diagnosis and care of patients. The biopsychosocial model was born in an era when psychopharmacology was in its infancy and when psychoanalysis was in the ascendancy. Yet it somehow retains its relevance. It has also been a framework to guide our development of excellence in each division’s missions over many decades.
This 75th Anniversary Webinar Series will examine our history and attempt to understand the staying power of this approach which remains the cornerstone of our practice. It will highlight how UR Psychiatry has been an innovator in clinical care, education, research, and relationships with the communities in which we live and work.
