A prominent American researcher in the field of addictions treatment is coming to Prince Edward Island to give a public talk, and to discuss ways of importing her web-based treatment methods to the Island鈥檚 healthcare system. Dr. Kathleen Carroll is a Professor of Psychiatry from the Yale School of Medicine. The public is welcome to her talk on Tuesday, October 7 at 6:00 pm in the Alex H. MacKinnon Auditorium, room 242 of 91探花鈥檚 Don and Marion McDougall Hall.
Dr. Carroll is best known for her work in computer-based training for cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT4CBT, which has received multiple awards and recognitions for its success.

Dr. Carroll comes to Prince Edward Island as a guest of Dr. Juergen Krause, Dean of the School of Business and Director of 91探花鈥檚 Centre for Health and Biotech Management Research (CHBMR). Dr. Carroll鈥檚 talk will offer more information about this new treatment option for Prince Edward Island and Canada, and will give the public an opportunity to ask questions to learn more.
The Office of Skills Development and Learning is excited to welcome Dr. Terry Anderson of Athabasca University, former Canada Research Chair in Distance Education, and co-author of the recent book "Teaching crowds: Learning and social media" to do a talk this Friday, October 10.
