Critical Research Issues in Latino Mental Health

Critical Research Issues in Latino Mental Health

Description of Conference

This conference focuses on creating an opportunity for new investigators to present their work to senior researchers. The goal of this conference is to help the new investigators in the area of Latino Mental Health receive mentoring, constructive feedback, and network with established researchers. The conference will host a keynote speaker, a grant-writing workshop, and will provide the opportunity for several new investigators to present relevant research papers.

New investigators whose work focuses on Latino mental health are invited to submit an abstract. While all topics concerning Latino mental health are welcomed, we especially encourage topics related to Immigration Issues, Health Care Systems, DSM-V, and Career Development". New investigators are typically within five years of receiving their doctoral degree and/or have not had an independent grant (e.g., RO1). Student researchers are also encouraged to submit an abstract. Each new investigator selected for an oral or poster presentation will have their travel expenses paid and will receive a modest stipend ($250) to help defray other expenses. Abstracts will also be considered for a poster session.

A key component of the conference is to provide mentoring to promising new investigators. New investigators who are selected to present will be paired with prominent senior researchers. In the months leading up to the conference, new investigators will have the opportunity to work closely with their assigned mentor on their presentation. During the conference, mentors will serve as discussants and time will be allotted for questions and answers from the audience. In the past, the conference has been notable for providing a stimulating and collaborative environment, where prominent researchers provide supportive feedback and guidance.

Background

Research has highlighted health disparities that exist between minority and non-minority populations in the United States. In the area of mental health, disparities have been noted in the areas of assessment and diagnosis, access to services and quality of care, as well as training and research. In light of recent US Census data, Latinos are now the largest minority group in the United States and the problem of mental health disparities is, therefore, of particular concern among Latinos. However, there continues to be a relatively small number of active Latino researchers and limited research focused on the mental health of this population. Thus, the Critical Research Issues in Latino Mental Health conference seeks to foster research careers that contribute to our knowledge of Latino mental health. The conference seeks to do so by bringing promising new investigators together with distinguished and established researchers in the area of Latino mental health.

New investigators can submit a 300 word abstract related to the topic to:
