  1. Medicine, Music & The Mind: The Unconventional Journey of Consultant Liaison Neuropsychiatrist Dr. Sotiris Posporelis

    5 DE JUN.

    Medicine, Music & The Mind: The Unconventional Journey of Consultant Liaison Neuropsychiatrist Dr. Sotiris Posporelis

    In our inaugural episode of "Self Matters," we had the pleasure of hosting Dr. Sotiris Posporelis. As a liaison neuropsychiatrist at the Maudsley in London, Dr. Pospo has been at the forefront of mental healthcare for decades. He shared with us how his childhood in Greece and his initial fascination with becoming a doctor were instrumental in paving his career path. He expressed his awe at how one cubic millimetre of the brain is a chaotic yet beautiful mystery, emphasising how far we are from fully understanding it. Dr. Pospo’s passion extends beyond clinical practice to teaching and sharing knowledge. He wants to do more than just educate; but foster interdisciplinary collaboration among mental healthcare professionals worldwide, transcending cultural and systemic differences. When asked how he would improve mental health care in the UK, Dr. Pospo emphasised the need for clinician-led systems. He believes that giving power back to clinicians who see patients daily could help mend the fragmented, overly complex healthcare systems in the UK. On a global scale, Dr. Pospo acknowledges the vast inequalities in mental health care but remains hopeful. 00:00 Introduction to Self Matters Podcast 00:48 Dr. Sotiris Posporelis: Journey to Neuropsychiatry 04:26 The Fascination with the Human Brain 06:56 The Impact of a Life-Altering Accident 09:22 Innovations in Psychiatry and Teaching10:38 Bridging Clinical and Academic Worlds12:20 Innovations in Grand Rounds 17:40 Balancing a Multifaceted Life 20:36 Challenges and Future of Mental Health Care Systems 26:56 Global Perspective on Mental Health 29:19 Closing Thoughts and Reflections
