Dr.
Rick Seime (Augsburg '70) of the Mayo Clinic's Department of Psychiatry
and Psychology, recently hosted a study tour for a class of 14 Augsburg
Psychology students. The day included a tour of Mayo's new Psychogenetics
Laboratory and the Neuropsychiatry Evaluation Center. In the Behavioral
Health Unit, students learned about and discussed several clinical topics
with Mayo researchers: The role of exercise in treatment of depression;
Tobacco use and treatment intervention among Alaskan natives; and treatment
of Obsessive-Compulsive Disorders. Many post-doctoral fellows provided participants
with information and advice regarding career and graduate school opportunities
and joined the students for dinner. Contributors to the day's program included
Augsburg Science Advisory Board Members - Dr. Seime and Christie Patten,
Ph.D. (Augsburg '85) - and Augsburg Regent Ruth E. Johnson, M.D. Students
are members of Dr. Nancy Steblay's Advanced Research Seminar. The Mayo tour
is part of a collaborative effort between Augsburg science faculty and the
Science Advisory Board.
