- Authors
Hassiotis, Angela; Munir, Kerim M.
- Abstract
The Natalie Cobbing Travelling Fellowship gives the opportunity to medical professionals trained in the Psychiatry of Intellectual Disabilities to gain experience in their field from centres overseas. This article concentrates on specialist work settings and the practice in developmental disabilities in Boston, USA. The authors conclude that such training opportunities not only are important educational milestones but also help in creating a network of professionals who can work together to improve standards of research and clinical practice across different cultural and ethnic divides.
