The Psychiatric/General Medical Interface Study Group is chaired by Lawson R. Wulsin, M.D. The study group is examining the link between general medical disorders and psychiatric disorders. Given that most patients with mental illnesses are seen by primary care physicians, the study group aims to ensure that DSM-5 meets the needs of general medical practitioners and not just specialty mental health clinicians. The group is also developing revision strategies for the forthcoming DSM-5-PC, which is intended to be used in primary care settings. The members of the Psychiatric/General Medical Interface Study Group are listed below.
