Fascinating #GrandRounds today by Dean MacKinnon, elucidating the history of Hopkins Psychiatry in the context of American Psychiatry. Interesting to shed light on the “medieval” period between Meyer’s Golden Age and McHugh’s Renaissance.

Tune in to hear our newly appointed James Wah Professor of Psychiatry, @paulnestadt, discuss firearm suicide on Morning Edition today. Great reporting by @NPRMichel as always. npr.org/2024/04/16/124392410…

Suicides make up majority of gun deaths, but remain overlooked in gun violence debate

Suicide is the leading cause of gun-related deaths in the United States. But it's often only an afterthought in the public debate about gun violence.

More than half of U.S. suicides are carried out with firearms. "If you are a gun owner, that brief moment where the suicidal thoughts exceed the desire to be alive for tomorrow, that’s all it takes." Our @paulnestadt, suicide researcher, in @nytimes: nytimes.com/2024/02/21/brief…

Hope for Suicide Prevention (Published 2024)

We look at promising, evidence-based efforts to prevent suicide.

Known “risk factors” for suicide, such as gender and race, are too general to pinpoint who might be in imminent danger. @HopkinsPsych’s @paulnestadt talks to @SDesmon about “psychological autopsies,” which may help us better understand who is most at risk. johnshopkinssph.libsyn.com/7…
Episode 705 of the Public Health On Call podcast is titled Psychological Autopsies To Prevent Suicides featuring Dr. Paul Nestadt.
