Message From The Chair

Emil F. Coccaro, M.D.
Ellen C. Manning Professor,
Chairman, Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Neuroscience
Over the past few years we have transformed this Department so as to enhance all of our clinical, educational, and research programs and have also reorganized along “mission lines” for clinical, educational, and research affairs to highlight our commitment to each of these critical areas. There is a very positive spirit in the Department and there is optimism and opportunity in each of the many areas in which we are active.
