National Student Psychiatry Conference 2026

The National Student Psychiatry Conference 2026 is taking place on the 24th - 25th January 2026 at Kent and Medway Medical School in Canterbury, Kent!

This two-day event invites students across the UK to engage in an exciting programme of student and faculty-led workshops and speaker events, all centred around our theme: “Mind the Gap - Bridging the Brain, Body, and Society.”

We aim to explore the importance of integrated care amongst different sectors of psychiatry and address the broader social and systemic factors that shape mental health. Topics will include mental health rehabilitation, creative therapies in psychiatry, health inequalities, neuropsychiatry and more.

Students who have purchased tickets will have the opportunity to participate in our poster presentation competition, debates, networking, and more. 

We have a limited number of tickets so purchase now for a guaranteed spot! 

This event was made possible by the generous donations of the Royal College of Psychiatrists, the Royal College of Psychiatrists South East Division, Kent and Medway Medical School, and the Kent and Medway Mental Health NHS Trust. We are grateful for their collaboration and commitment to promoting excellence in mental health education and practice.
