The president's column in this issue of Psychiatric News presented information on Dr. Atul Gawande, who was expected to be the Convocation lecturer at APA's 2009 annual meeting in San Francisco. Unfortunately, Dr. Gawande had to cancel the engagement. Another speaker has not yet been chosen. Updated information will appear in a future issue of Psychiatric News.
