Why do you feel that when it comes to psychopharmacology, knowing how to really interpret the scientific literature is important for clinicians? Why is it important to know whether the clinical characteristics of the subjects resemble or differ from your own patients and to what extent?

 In this episode, Dr. Andrew Cutler interviews Dr. Stephen Stahl and Dr. Joseph Goldberg about their recent book, Practical Psychopharmacology: Translating Findings From Evidence-Based Trials Into Real-World Clinical Practice. Learn more about why it is important to understand how to interpret the scientific literature and apply it to your clinical practice.

Joseph F. Goldberg, MD, is a psychiatrist with 25 years of experience in academic research studying the features and treatment of mood disorders, particularly bipolar disorder and other forms of depression. He is a Clinical Professor in the Department of Psychiatry at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, New York, NY. He has spent many years conducting studies of mood disorders at academic medical centers such as the Payne Whitney Clinic/Weill Medical College of New York Presbyterian Hospital, the Zucker Hillside Hospital-North Shore Long Island Jewish Health System, and the Mount Sinai School of Medicine. Presently, he supervises and teaches psychopharmacology to medical students and residents at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine, and maintains a private practice in Norwalk, CT. His goal is to integrate knowledge from that research background by taking a scholarly approach to psychopharmacology and applying it in tailored fashion to the unique needs of an individual patient. He has published over 180 original research publications in major psychiatric journals as well as several books on topics related to mood disorders. He serves on the board of directors of the American Society for Clinical Psychopharmacology and has lectured nationally and internationally at major scientific meetings and conferences.
