In our quest for ever-better care, we recognize the importance of innovation and the opportunities that are brought by discovery and emerging technologies. In this regard, the McLean team is dedicated to developing new methods of treatment through research while educating tomorrow’s health care leaders.
As you will read in the Year in Review, whether talking about our clinical programs, research laboratories, lecture halls, or administrative offices, the people who constitute the McLean community are striving to deliver advances in psychiatry, medicine, and neuroscience to those whom we serve.
In the pages of this magazine, aptly titled Compassionate Care Through Innovation, you will meet just a few members of the McLean team who, through their drive and vision, are working to transform the field—at McLean and around the globe. Among the people you will meet on the following pages are:
