YCSC Grand Rounds: Cohen Lecture
"Using New Technologies to Improve the Understanding, Prediction, & Prevention of Suicidal Behavior"
In this lecture, Matthew K. Nock, PhD, will highlight how the development of digital and computational tools (e.g., smartphones, wearable sensors, machine learning algorithms) have led to advances in the understanding, prediction, and prevention of suicidal thoughts and behaviors. Specifically, he will describe how such approaches have improved the ability to identify which patients are at greatest risk, when risk is greatest, and how to effectively intervene in real-time to decrease risk of self-harm.
This annual lecture named in honor of former YCSC Director Donald Cohen, MD, focuses on developmental psychopathology and neurobiology.
