This June the Psychiatry Department held it’s Annual Psychiatry Department Meeting, where faculty and staff from across the department gather to learn about the last years and upcoming year’s department profiles (e.g. faculty demographics, funding overviews) the roles and updates from the department administration team (e.g. Research, Grants Management, Human Resources).  This year the department meeting was followed by the first-ever Staff Appreciation Event, where staff were invited to lunch and to participate in different activities designed to reach across labs and centers within the department.

Bernier Lab Highlights of this year’s meeting include:

• Recognition of Dr. Raphe Bernier’s promotion to Professor! Congratulations Raphe!
• Raphe Bernier’s video clip where he describes the Autism Blogcasts!
• Micah Pepper’s video clip from managing staff who are part of the Psychiatry Operations Council!

We want to send a special thank you to the Psychiatry Department’s administration team for putting together a great event this year! Some of our staff even got to meet the UW’s most famous celebrity, Dubs!
