- 18:15 - 19:00 Leslie Stephen RoomMcMenemy Seminar: Laurence Whittaker - 'Antidepressants: Do you know what you're taking? - Evaluating New Therapeutics in Mental Health'
  
  Abstract: Every day millions of people depend on prescription medications to help them with a variety of ailments, from the antacid taken to alleviate indigestion to the antibiotic used to cure a chest infection and analgesics to relieve pain. However, there is little public awareness into the effectiveness of individual medications. Nowhere is this truer than in the realm of mental health. This talk will examine the evidence-base for one such psychiatric medication, Seroquel, and in doing so will touch on broader issues concerning drug development and the role of the pharmaceutical industry in drug promotion. Come for the scintillating disquisition, stay for the delicious sherry.
