ABOUT THIS EPISODE
In this episode of Behind the Stigma, we delve into the transformative world of lifestyle psychiatry with Dr. Nicholas Fabiano, a third-year psychiatry resident at the University of Ottawa.
We explore the role of exercise in managing mild to moderate depression, its potential as a therapeutic modality alongside traditional treatments, and the broader implications for mental health care.
We also discuss the challenges of publication bias in mental health research, the integration of AI in systematic reviews, and ethical considerations in advancing critical psychiatry. Dr. Fabiano shares insights from his groundbreaking research on exercise, mental health, and even its darker side as a form of self-harm.
