Watch the replay of a live interview hosted by MHS CoHost, Victoria Field and Harvard Psychiatrist, Mental Health Researcher, and MHS Speaker, Dr. Chris Palmer! Dr. Palmer is the director of the Department of Postgraduate and Continuing Education at McLean Hospital and an Assistant Professor of Psychiatry at Harvard Medical School. He is a psychiatrist working at the interface of metabolic and mental disorders in order to better understand the overlap between disorders like diabetes, obesity, heart disease, and mental illness. Dr. Palmer believes that this work may lead to a better understanding of what causes mental illness and how to provide more effective treatments.

Dr. Palmer has been a practicing psychiatrist for 25 years now, in addition to doing research and teaching. His clinical practice has focused on treatmentresistant cases, and he says he is painfully aware of the shortcomings of our current approaches. In hopes of improving the state of care, Dr. Palmer is pioneering the use of the ketogenic diet in psychiatry.
