The Format

Each of the seminars is specially commissioned from a leading world expert in a user friendly format of animated slides with synchronized narration. The talks preserve each speaker’s personality and approach allowing you to experience world class seminars at your own pace, wherever you want and as often as you want.

"This excellent series of talks comprehensively covers the whole range of a new, exciting area in psychopharmacology, from the basic sciences of receptor pharmacology and pharmacogenetics to their clinical applications, with the ultimate promise of the true individualisation of drug therapy based on pharmacogenetic profiling. The speakers are recognised international experts in their chosen fields of interest and their material will equip the reader with a state of the art understanding of this new genome based science. If, as seems increasingly likely, the future lies in computer based learning, Henry Stewart’s initiative has certainly paved the way. It will be greatly valued by neuroscientists, psychiatrists and students all over the world to gain easy access to experts of international standing."

Prof. David J. King, Emeritus Professor of Clinical Psychopharmacology, Queen's University Belfast, UK
