Tasmanian PIF members to 2024 Tasmania Branch Conference
Eligible PIF members from Tasmania are invited to apply for a sponsorship to attend the 2024 Tasmania Branch Conference. This event is being held at the Peppers Silo Launceston, 89-91 Lindsay Street, Launceston, Tasmania from Friday November 22 to Sunday November 24, 2024.
This highly anticipated weekend conference is aptly titled "Is psychiatry re-enacting the myth of Sisyphus?" Psychiatry is in such an exciting phase, with new medications, new mechanisms of action, new ways of integrating psychotherapy and neurobiology. But are we ready and able to capitalise on these gains and ensure better, enduring outcomes for our patients and their families? Or are we merely going to push the proverbial boulder to the top of the hill, simply to see it roll down again? The conference has a broad scope, with clinical updates on topics relevant to all in the field. And there will be plenty of time for discussion, both formal and informal, as we try to plan for a better future for our discipline.
Two (2) sponsorship places are being offered and include:
- Full registration to attend all conference sessions;
- A ticket to the Friday Night Welcome Reception, and to the Conference Dinner on the Saturday evening;
- A ticket to attend a Social Walking Tour of Launceston on Friday 22 November from 3:30-4:30pm.
Sponsorship recipients must commit to attending the full Conference program. Please note that this sponsorship does not cover costs associated with travel or accommodation. PIF members who are Fellows or trainees of other specialties are ineligible to apply.
To apply for a sponsorship, please read the terms and conditions and apply by Tuesday October 22, 2024.
PIF members who have already registered for this event are still eligible to apply for this sponsorship.
Please email pif@ranzcp.org with any queries.
