What is Thinking In Psychiatry?
Thinking in Psychiatry is an Academy by Psych Scene podcast featuring short, high-signal audio episodes you can listen to on the go. Each week we break down emerging evidence, evolving clinical frameworks, and complex cases across the lifespan – from psychopharmacology and neurobiology to formulation, systems thinking, and metabolic and sleep psychiatry. Designed for busy clinicians, every episode is grounded in evidence, reviewed by faculty, and focused on one question: how can we practise better psychiatry, starting today?
