DESCRIPTION:A panel discussion on the future of expertise in mental health
  research and policy. This event is part of the ANTITHESES platform\, fund
 ed by Wellcome.\n\nThe panel discussion will be chaired by Professor Ilina
  Singh.\n\nPanel Speakers\n\nWe're delighted to welcome:\n\nDr David Crepa
 z-Keay\nProfessor Sir Simon Wessely\nAn additional speaker to be announced
 \n\nSpecial guests: The NeurOx YPAG\n\nAbout the event\n\nTransformations 
 in the concept and sources of mental health 'expertise' are impacting how 
 we think about diagnosis\, identity\, need and treatment. At the same time
 \, the UK is experiencing an unparalleled surge in people seeking mental h
 ealth support\, with lengthy waitlists and significant inequalities in acc
 ess to services.\n\nOur public event asks: What kinds of expertise should 
 we trust to identify\, support and treat mental health needs? Speakers wil
 l address some difficult challenges: Is traditional medical expertise stil
 l relevant in an age of self-diagnosis through social media? How should ot
 her forms of expertise\, e.g. AI chatbots and lived experience\, figure in
  how we design future mental health support and policy? Will a more libera
 l perspective on 'expertise' help tackle the problem of inequalities in me
 ntal health access and support? How should we handle disagreements among s
 uch experts?\n\nPanel Discussion\n\nA panel of speakers representing diffe
 rent perspectives will discuss: "What role does 'mental health expertise' 
 play in the future of psychiatry\, mental health science and policy?"\n\nT
 he floor will first be opened to questions and responses from the NeurOx Y
 oung People's Advisory Group (NeurOx YPAG)\, which will then be followed b
 y an audience Q&A.\n\nThis event will take place in the Assembly Room\, To
 wn Hall\, St Aldate's\, Oxford OX1 1BX.\n\nDoors open at 17:30 and the eve
 nt will begin promptly at 18:00. Please arrive with good time to find your
  seat.
