Grab this opportunity to present your original ideas on how the practice of Psychiatry can adopt newer technologies. You have until COP on Friday 11th August 2023 to send us your submission.

We are looking for proposals that could be a novel way of using technology to aid diagnosis, or deliver treatment, or anything in between! Any submissions with a QI or research idea or project are also welcome, but we encourage proposals with broad ideas on using digital technologies within the practice of psychiatry. Special merit will be given for creative ideas and formats, unlike typical academic conferences.

This is an excellent opportunity for trainees to showcase experience on their portfolio.

Participants with the best proposals will be invited to present their idea in a Pecha-Kucha style at the conference on Monday 4 September. What’s more there are prizes to be won!

Pecha Kucha is a presentation style where the presenter shows 20 slides for 20 seconds each.

Please submit your proposals or contact for any queries: chair.digitalsig@rcpsych.ac.uk.
