In late March, the board of trustees of the American Psychiatric Association (APA) voted to phase out industry-supported symposia and meals at the organization's annual meetings. Nada L. Stotland, MD, MPH, president of the association, said the decision to end industry funding of medical education has been in the works for more than a year. In March 2008, before starting her tenure as president, Stotland convened a working group to assess all funding the organization was receiving from pharmaceutical companies and what industry funding could be eliminated.
