BOOKINGS CLOSED.
Being an open science journal, JCPP Advances aims to proactively experiment with and explore new approaches to publication and research. We have achieved so much in our first year, and hope you can join us to celebrate.
This one-year anniversary event will feature a series of five fantastic 10-minute lectures from leading researchers, academics and practitioners on a number of topics in the field of child and adolescent mental health, and will also include a short presentation from Wiley, ACAMH’s publishing partner, highlighting JCPP Advances’ success so far.
Speakers include: Professor Henrik Larsson JCPP Advances Editor in Chief, Professor Edmund Sonuga-Barke, Professor Mina Fazel, Professor Argyris Stringaris, Dr. Jessie Baldwin, Dr. Praveetha Patalay, and Sarah Oates.
