NEW YORK — In this Healio Video Perspective, Hyun Jung Kim, MD, discusses the format of her presentation on the relationship between cannabis use and risk for psychosis at the American Psychiatric Association Annual Meeting.
Kim, the director of psychiatric training and outreach in the Support, Treatment and Resilience program at McLean Hospital and an instructor in psychiatry at Harvard Medical School, and colleagues used a case-based collaborative learning format for their presentation to encourage the audience to think about cases involving cannabis use and psychosis risk in real-life scenarios and do problem-solving exercises.
The three big components of this learning format are that it is case-based, team-based and problem-focused, Kim said.
“Whatever problems we can identify that are embedded in those real-life scenarios and case examples ... we tried to approach not just with the knowledge base in scientific findings, but also using clinical pearls, which matter a lot,” she said.
