We really want to thank this year’s speakers Dr. Maureen Reardon and Dr. Shaun Acheson, and all of our poster presenters. We also want to acknowledge the work of Amber Watkins and her team from CONCEPT who delivered an excellent two-day presentation for approximately 80 participants and Drs. Kara Marciani, and Erin Nichting for their efforts.
We are pleased to announce that Ashley H. VanDercar, MD, JD was the winner of our poster presentation. Her topic “Mens Rea, Sanity, and Kahler v. Kansas; implications for Ohio” tied in nicely with the conference topics. The votes were very close, and we felt all of the presenters did a great job. Thank you for your contributions.
While this year’s conference was not in-person, and many of you commented on that, it was still great to see and hear colleagues asking great questions and thinking critically about this year’s topics.

You can email (or mail) your scanned certificates to mce@ohpsych.org and you will be credited for your APA-approved CEs and they will count as completed forensic and ethics hours.

Please join us in our upcoming educational opportunities. We will be posting here and hopefully be back in person, very soon.
