Free Public Seminar

Mental illnesses impose a significant and far-reaching burden on the heath and well being of communities worldwide, not only to people affected by these disorders, but to families and society as a whole. With one in five Australians suffering some form of mind or brain disorder during their lifetime, medical research cannot ignore this growing problem.

Presenters:
