SUMMARY:RARC Psychiatric and Behavioral Genetics Special Interest Group (SIG) Meeting Featuring Takahiro Soda - "The clinical impact of genetics in psychiatry: What is clinically indicated? What is getting in the way? Cases and findings."
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the Psychiatric and Behavioral Genetics Special Interest Group featuring Takahiro Soda\, Assistant Professor of Psychiatry at the University of Florida College of Medicine and Medical Director of the UF Health Center for Autism and Neurodevelopment. Dr. Soda’s presentation will explore the role of genetic testing in evaluating individuals with autism and intellectual developmental disorders\, examining why testing rates remain low despite clinical recommendations. He will also discuss potential barriers to testing and how differing perspectives among patients\, families\, and healthcare providers may influence decisions about genetic testing. \nTalk title: The clinical impact of genetics in psychiatry: What is clinically indicated?

SUMMARY:Addiction Policy Forum Webinar - Alcohol Use Disorder: Addressing the Special Needs of Women and Understanding Recovery Trajectories and Relapse
DESCRIPTION:Women with alcohol use disorder (AUD) may face unique barriers to care\, including stigma\, caregiving responsibilities\, co-occurring mental health conditions\, trauma exposure\, and limited access to services designed to meet their needs. Understanding these factors is essential to improving equitable access to effective\, person-centered treatment. \nThis webinar will examine alcohol use and AUD among women in the United States\, with a focus on the evidence base for treatment and clinical considerations that may shape women’s experiences when seeking care. Participants will learn about evidence-based behavioral and medication interventions\, as well as clinical and recovery support that can promote treatment engagement and sustained recovery. \nThe session will also explore recovery as a dynamic\, long-term process. Presenters will review widely used models of recovery\, recovery trajectories\, and current research on recurrence of alcohol use\, including factors that may increase risk and those that may support long-term wellness. \nSpeakers \n\nShelly Greenfield\, M.D.\, MPH\, Professor of Psychiatry at Harvard Medical School; Director of Alcohol\, Drug and Addiction Clinical and Health Services Research Program at McLean Hospital\nJohn F. Kelly\, Ph.D.\, ABPP\, Elizabeth R. Spallin Professor of Psychiatry in the Field of Addiction Medicine at Harvard Medical School; Founder and Director of the Recovery Research Institute\nRedonna Chandler\, Ph.D.\, Scientific Advisor\, Addiction Policy Forum\n\nFor more information\, click here.

SUMMARY:Socratic Scrub Grand Rounds featuring Dr. Jennifer G. Mulle - "How do you study a complex phenotype like schizophrenia?  A rare variant perspective"
DESCRIPTION:In collaboration with the Rutgers Acute Care Surgery Research (RASR) Lab\, Robert Wood Johnson Medical School\, the Rutgers School of Graduate Studies\, and the Rutgers Office of Postdoctoral Affairs\, we are pleased to invite you to the next Socratic Scrub Grand Rounds\, featuring Dr. Jennifer G. Mulle\, Ph.D.\, of Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson Medical School. \nDate: Friday\, October 30\, 2026 \nTime: 10:00–11:00 AM \nRegistration: https://rutgers.zoom.us/meeting/register/RqqTQvm-StWWMeCstAkLjw \n\nTitle: How do you study a complex phenotype like schizophrenia?  A rare variant perspective. \nSocratic Scrub Grand Rounds is a series devoted to research judgment: the reasoning behind discovery rather than its finished results. Drawing on François Jacob’s distinction between “day science” and “night science\,” we invite distinguished investigators to share not only what they found\, but how they navigated the uncertainty\, false starts\, and difficult decisions along the way. The series is open broadly to Rutgers faculty and trainees\, and we would be honored to have your participation. \nDr. Jennifer Mulle\, Professor in the Department of Psychiatry at the Robert Wood Johnson School of Medicine at Rutgers University\, is passionate about the potential for rare variants to enhance our understanding of common complex psychiatric phenotypes.  After earning her PhD in Human Genetics at Johns Hopkins\, she completed a postdoctoral fellowship at Emory University where she discovered that deletion at chromosome 3q29 confers an estimated 40-fold increased risk for schizophrenia.  Dr. Mulle uses the 3q29 deletion as a model to identify the molecular and cellular underpinnings of schizophrenia\, autism\, and associated neurodevelopmental and psychiatric disorders.
