MODULE 1 - INTERDISCIPLINARY
TRAINING
Venice, July 9-19, 2008
Leading international
authorities from the different core disciplines of the field
(psychiatry, psychology, economics, health policy, services
research) will serve as instructors for the formal in-person
courses. The teachers have been distinguished speakers at
international congresses, have published extensively in
international peer-reviewed journals, have relevant experience in
academic education and training. This course provides an
interdisciplinary, introductory approach to the core components of
the field. It will develop a common, "core" set of information and
expertise that is needed by all researchers, regardless of
discipline, to conduct research in this area and to communicate with
one another in a common language. The participants will be trained
in each of the core components of the field of mental health policy
and economics and provided a picture of how the disciplines relate
to each other and are integrated to produce high quality research in
this field. The participants will learn what each discipline
contributes (principally clinical, health services analysis, health
economics, health policy, study design and methods) in joint
research projects development. It will enable participants both to
refine the contribution of their specific discipline and to develop
awareness of when they need to rely on collaboration with informed
researchers from other disciplines to design and conduct a "sound"
research project. .
The training material and the
related references (Syllabus and References) referring to the issues
that each instructor will cover, are available to the Participants
through password on the ICMPE website at www.icmpe.org upon registration.
It will enable participants to receive substantial information prior
of their course.
