University of Manitoba Department of Psychiatry Research Report
It is our pleasure to write this thirteenth Annual Department of Psychiatry Research Report.
The research and scholarly productivity of department members, residents, and graduate
students is outstanding. Research conducted within the department spans all four pillars of the
Canadian Institutes of Health Research (basic science, clinical, population-health, and
sociocultural). Based on the fact that our department members are regularly publishing in
high-impact, international journals, it is clear that we are producing new and important
information for clinicians, researchers and policy makers.
Mentorship, excellence, and interdisciplinary team work has led to the success of the
researchers in our department. Forums such as the Resident Research Day and Faculty
Research Day foster the capacity for generating new research ideas and collaborations. We
thank all faculty members, residents and graduate students for their hard work in 2010.
