The Tech Hub is excited to welcome Stanford Psychiatry Grand Rounds speaker, Dr. Patricia Areán, PhD, to join us for an intimate Q&A session on February 1st 4-5:30pm (Pacific). This discussion will expand upon themes covered in her Grand Rounds talk on “Current Uses of Digital Mental Health - Patient Perspectives, Engagement and Outcomes” and will be an opportunity to ask Dr. Areán questions about her work in a more conversational setting. Dr. Areán’s research explores topics such as: What do we currently know about engagement with digital mental health offerings? What does productive versus unproductive engagement look like? What are patients’ preferences regarding these tools? Come with your questions for Dr. Areán or, if you’d like to submit them ahead of time, you can email them to pippa@stanford.edu. We hope to see you there!
