CONFERENCE FACULTY Key Faculty Stephen V. Sobel, MD - Conference Chair

Clinical Instructor, University of California San Diego School of Medicine Author of, Successful Psychopharmacology: Evidence-Based Treatment Solutions for Achieving Remission Private Practice of Adult and Adolescent Psychiatry Carlsbad, California

Stephen V. Sobel, M.D. graduated with Honors from Duke University and Vanderbilt University Medical School, and completed an Internship in Internal Medicine at Georgetown University prior to moving to San Diego, where he completed a Residency in Psychiatry at UC San Diego. Dr. Sobel is in the private practice of Psychiatry in Carlsbad, CA with special interests in the treatment of Depression, Mania, Anxiety Disorders, Self-Esteem Issues, OCD, PTSD, Eating Disorders, and ADD/ADHD. Dr. Sobel also has an interest in Sports Psychiatry. He has been asked to serve as a Consulting Psychiatrist for the NFL, the San Diego Chargers, Major League Baseball, the San Diego Padres, and the American Hockey League San Diego Gulls. Dr. Sobel is a Clinical Instructor in Psychiatry at UC San Diego School of Medicine and Supervising Psychiatrist for the award winning UCSD Free Clinic for the Homeless. Due to his expertise and experience, Dr. Sobel is asked to teach across the United States, Canada, and Europe and has lectured to tens of thousands of physicians and therapists about the treatment of Depression, Anxiety, Bipolar Disorder, Eating Disorders, ADD/ADHD, Psychopharmacology, Behavioral Medicine, and Suicide. Dr. Sobel has been honored by the United States Psychiatric and Mental Health Congress as Teacher of the Year, the only clinician ever so honored. He is the author of the highly acclaimed, Successful Psychopharmacology: Evidence-Based Treatment Solutions for Achieving Remission. Rave Reviews: “Dr. Sobel’s knowledge and mastery of the subject is excellent! He is clearly an expert in his field and a leader in Medicine with the ability to bring research to clinical level medicine.” “Dr. Sobel is a gifted educator, the best at this conference! I rearranged my whole schedule just to be able to hear him again.” “Dr. Sobel has a remarkable ability to describe neurobiology and the mechanisms of action of medications and he makes it clear how to achieve his stated goal of remission for mental health disorders. With straightforward, un-common sense and evident compassion for his patients, he provides templates for using medications so those who prescribe can find their way through the maze of choices to serve the patient most effectively.”

Alan P. Agins, PhD - Conference Co-Chair President: PRN Associates, Ltd. Continuing Healthcare Education Tucson, Arizona

Dr. Alan P. Agins received a Masters in Pharmacology & Toxicology and a Ph.D. in Pharmaceutical Sciences from the University of Rhode Island. He has held faculty appointments at Brown University Medical School, Northeastern University School of Pharmacy and University of Virginia School of Nursing. During his tenure at Brown, Dr. Agins was the recipient of the Dean’s Teaching Excellence Award for five consecutive years. Over the past twenty-four years, Dr. Agins has lectured nationally on all topics of pharmacology to more than 90,000 advanced practice clinicians and allied healthcare professionals. He has authored three books, co-authored textbook chapters and has served as primary reviewer for various journals, CE monographs, textbooks and newsletters, and has presented more than 350 live CE webinars to pharmacists for AMN Healthcare over the past 11 years. The “take-home-message” that Dr. Agins attempts to instill is to adopt a profound respect for, but also cautious attitude about drugs - what they can do…and what their limitations are. After many years “on the road” and every conceivable pharmacology question from his audiences, Dr. Agins maintains a great sense of humor and wit, as well as a unique talent for breathing life into dry or difficult subject matter. His goal is to make this course memorable, informative and enjoyable for everyone who attends. Rave Reviews: “Amazingly knowledgeable and up to date information! Dr. Alan Agins was very informative and entertaining! He made it fun to learn!” Kevin Harriger, APRN, FNP-BC, ACNP-BC Gering, Nebraska “Excellent faculty. Great combination of clinical knowledge paired with pharmacology. Presented in a very understandable format. What a great conference delivered by excellent speakers. I may not practice each subject we learned every day, but it was a great refresher course. Looking forward to attending the other days I missed in the future.” Maritess Morales, FNP-c, Berkeley, Ca. “I have been in practice for over 20 years. I have attended many sessions on pharmacology for advanced practice clinicians in the past. Dr. Agins is terrific. Excellent conference!” Dr. Corranda Kosciolek, MSN, FNP-BC, DHA Temecula, CA
