The Journal of Group-Analytic Psychotherapy ============================================================= 1. Call for Papers - Clinical Child Psychology and Psychiatry ============================================================= In 1996 SAGE Publications will be launching Clinical Child Psychology and Psychiatry - a major, new journal to bring together clinically oriented work of the highest distinction from an international and multidisciplinary perspective. The journal will be edited by Bryan Lask from Great Ormond Street Hospital, London. Clinical Child Psychology and Psychiatry will provide a high quality forum for papers which focus on clinical and therapeutic aspects of child and adolescent psychology and psychiatry. Contributions should be sent to: Dr Bryan Lask, Department of Psychologal Medicine, Great Ormond Street Hospital, Great Ormond Street, London WC1N 3JH, UK If you would like further details please contact Jane Makoff (makoff@sageltd.co.uk). ============================================================= 2.Call for collaborators: EEG, ERP, Sleep studies ============================================================= The IBEGROUP (Internet based Biomedical Engineering GROUP) invites experts from around the world to participate in the development of a state-of-the-art biomedical data acquisition system for EEG, ERP and SLEEP studies . The IBEGROUP is a non-profit Internet based distributed product development group. The current project involves the development of a high performance 32/128 channel biomedical data acquisition system. The group's objectives are: (1) Make a contribution to the science of biomedical instrumentation (2) Provide biomedical engineers with an opportunity to develop interdisciplinary contacts worldwide, (3) Introduce participants to the art of product development, from conception to manufacturing. (4) Produce a superior data acquisition system for educational and research programs. Funding will be sought through grants, sponsors, and support from users and manufacturers of biomedical equipment. The group seeks expertise in such areas as: low voltage, low power, ultra low noise, fiber-optics, telemetry, analog and digital IC design, power/signal isolation, DSP, computer interfacing, and manufacturing. Scientists, engineers, technologists and educators with relevant experience, as well as users and manufacturers of biomedical equipment, are invited to participate in this project. Please email the Project-Coordinator, Herman van den Bergen, for more information (vdbergen@acadvm1.uottawa.ca) (vdbergen@uottawa.bitnet). ============================================================= 3. Outpatient certification ============================================================= I am interested in the issue of out-patient certification as an alternative to compulsory in-patient treatment, or as a vehicle to give authorisation for treatment of mentally-ill individuals who are deteriorating and have no insight into their own illness. There are approximately 26 states in the USA which have such legislation, and I am interested in hearing from physicians who have been involved in the drafting, or implementation, of these laws. Comments from physicians who support, or have criticism of, this legislation, would also be appreciated. I would also appreciate the comments of Psychiatrists or Family Physicians from other jurisdictions who have experience or advice. The Ontario College of Family Physicians, a 5,000 member organisation, is interested in lobbying for such legislation in Canada. Out patient certification has recently been recommended by several coroners' juries investigating the deaths of schizophrenic patients in our province, the latest being the death of Lester Donaldson, a schizophrenic who was shot by police in a violent confrontation in Toronto. Comments on issues such as the criteria for out-patient vs in-patient certification, who would be the decision-maker (physician or patient designate), and the success or otherwise of such interventions, would be appreciated.
