I continue to be impressed at the rapid anti-suicidal efficacy of IV ketamine, so of course loved talking with Psychiatry Advisor on this life-changing treatment for patients. #ketamine #SuicidePrevention @NMPsychiatry psychiatryadvisor.com/features/ketam…

Thought had crossed my mind before that ketamine could be a feasible intervention in lorazepam-refractory catatonia. Cool to see that the case-series lead is that there may be benefit in some cases. #ketamine #catatonia …t-com.ezproxy.galter.northwestern.edu/science/articl…

Helpful study showing that smoking cessation actually increases outcomes for comorbid substance use disorders. My experience is that often patients want to hold off smoking cessation to focus on other addictions. jamanetwork.com/journals/jamap…

Digging into what psychiatric/psychosomatic research has been done using the National Inpatient Sample over the past 20 years. Has been very interesting to see what gets studied and what does not.

A lot of hard work going into NM’s collaborative care. I’ve been so impressed with everyone involved. Accelerator kick off last week was excellent! audacy.com/wbbm780/news/l…
