Clinical Profile

Summary

Research interests center around treatment-resistant depression: the use of pharmacogenetic testing (such as cytochrome P-450 2D6 and 2C19), transcranial magnetic stimulation, cognitive behavioral therapy, and impact of co-morbid personality disorders. I am also interested in the application of computer technology to psychiatric education (electronic filing cabinets, on-line assessment tools) and clinical practice (electronic medical records, schedules).
