I think this is good news. Anything that separates pdocs from the drug companies is good. I live in the Boston area and Biederman et al at Mass General have really taken a hit to their reputations. What really needs to happen is for hospitals to more fully fund their psych departments so that they are not so dependent on getting grants from pharma companies to run drug trials.
I am just starting with a new pdoc after 15yrs with the one before and it has really reminded me of how vulnerable and dependent I am on her judgements. Not a comfortable place to be. Wish me luck.
