FORENSICS
Law School 101
Craig R. Lareau, JD, PhD
Lawyers go through years of law school to learn the basics of law. Many psychologists have practices that interface with the legal system, but they have never learned the background legal framework that is important to their professional work. This institute will present a broad overview of foundational legal issues across multiple areas of law, including civil procedure, evidence, constitutional law, torts, criminal procedure, and criminal law. Through this introduction to the law, attendees will gain a much better understanding of basic legal concepts.

POST-COMBAT BEHAVIORAL HEALTH
Complications of War: Recommendations for Clinical Treatment Strategies from Veterans and Their Families
Mary Ellen Salzano & Morgan Sammons, PhD, ABPP
The # 1 recommendation of the 2008 RAND study, "The Invisible Wounds of War," is
to increase the cadre of providers who are trained to deliver care to vets and
their families in order to reach beyond the Department of Defense and VA healthcare
systems and into the community. Psychologists will have a unique opportunity
to participate in a dialogue with expert practitioners as well as vets and their
families. In one panel, vets who have been deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan,
and family members of deployed vets, will describe their combat experiences-and
their experiences in receiving mental health services. In the second panel, clinicians,
chaplains, and clergy working with vets who have returned to their community
will share what they have learned and what they feel is needed to help the transition
back to civilian life. The institute will include ample opportunity for direct
questions for audience members in order to learn about military culture and effects
of today's form of combat.
Panel Moderators:
Mary Ellen Salzano, Founder and Facilitator, California Statewide Collaborative for our Military and Families.
Morgan Sammons, PhD, ABPP, Dean, California School of Professional Psychology and former Director for Clinical Support for the United States Navy Bureau of Medicine and Surgery.
PSYCHOPHARMACOLOGY
Expanding your Practice - Expanding your Skills: Bringing Psychologists to the Cutting Edge in Neurobiology and Psychopharmacology
Jarline A. Ketola, RN, PNP, PhD, MSCP; Alan Lincoln, PhD, MSCP; Irwin S. Rosenfarb, PhD
The disciplines of clinical psychology and clinical neuropsychology play significant roles in the diagnosis and treatment of individuals with mental disorders, personality disorders, neurodevelopmental disorders, and acquired brain disorders. Clinical psychologists and clinical neuropsychologists have also played pivotal roles in the development of the science of factors and types of pathology that lead to these disorders as well as the science of the various forms of therapy and treatments for such conditions. Informed practice now involves a deep understanding of the biological bases of psychological disorders and treatments that have emerged from our contemporary understanding of their bases; and treatments that are complementary or superior to more biologically based forms of intervention. Division V of the California Psychological Association, the Division of Psychopharmacology, has as part of its mission the task of supporting psychologists by informing them of new advances in the neuroscience of psychological disorders and the science of contemporary psychopharmacology. This workshop will broaden the participants understanding of the biological bases of psychosis, both early and late onset; the role of collaborative models for the delivery of effective treatment; the psychopharmacology of psychosis; and evaluation of treatment efficacy.
